	 	(iii)	each participating Lender consenting to such increase. 

  

	 	(h)	UPC Broadband may pay to any Increase Lender a fee in the amount and at the times agreed between UPC Broadband and the Increase Lender.

 85 









	 	
the relevant Lenders may agree that an Additional Facility shares in the Security on a junior basis to the other Facilities (provided that any Additional Facility which is secured on a junior
ranking basis over assets subject to Security must be granted on terms where the rights of the Lenders under such Additional Facility are subordinated to the rights of other Lenders under the Intercreditor Agreement) which, if so agreed, shall be

	 	(ii)	each Additional Facility Lender shall become a party to this Agreement as a “Lender”. 

  

	 	(f)	The execution by UPC Broadband and the relevant Borrower of an Additional Facility Accession Agreement constitutes confirmation by each Guarantor that its obligations under Clause 17 (Guarantee) shall continue
unaffected except that those obligations shall extend to the Total Commitments as increased by the addition of the relevant Lender’s Commitment and shall be owed to each Finance Party including the relevant Lender. 


 

	 	(g)	Subject to paragraph (h) below, the aggregate principal amount of any proposed Additional Facility shall not exceed the aggregate of the sum of: 


 

	 	(i)	an unlimited amount, provided that on the date of such incurrence and after giving effect to the making of any Additional Facility (assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Advances available under any such
Additional Facility being incurred and no netting of cash proceeds of any such Additional Facility being incurred) pursuant to an Additional Facility Accession Agreement on a pro forma basis, Senior Net Debt to Annualised EBITDA is equal to or less
than 4.50:1; 

  

	 	(ii)	 if the proceeds of the Additional Facility are being used to refinance existing indebtedness that ranks pari

replace, repurchase, retire or refinance, in whole or in part, existing Advances or Commitments (the “Refinanced Debt”) provided that if the obligations under such Refinancing Additional Facility do not rank equal to or junior to

	 	(B)	as of the Refinancing Additional Facility Effective Date, it does not have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Refinanced Debt; 


 

	 	(C)	if it ranks junior in right of security, it participates on a junior basis with respect to voluntary prepayments or cancellations and mandatory prepayments of term loans;

Commitments which are secured on a first ranking basis; 

  

	 	(B)	it does not have a final maturity date or commitment reduction date earlier than the final maturity date or commitment reduction date, respectively, in respect of the Refinanced Debt; 


 

	 	(C)	 it provides that the borrowing and repayment (other than in respect of (i) payment of interest and fees at
different rates on Refinancing Additional Facilities that are Revolving Facilities, (ii) repayments required upon the final maturity date of a Revolving Facility and (iii) repayment made in connection with




  
 88 









	 	
a permanent repayment and termination of commitments of Advances with respect to Refinancing Additional Facilities that are Revolving Facilities after the Refinancing Additional Facility
Effective Date shall be made on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not more than a pro rata basis) with all other Revolving Facilities then existing on the Refinancing Additional Facility Effective Date; 


 

	 	(D)	it provides that assignments and participations of Refinancing Additional Facilities that are Revolving Facilities shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to the Revolving
Facilities then existing on the Refinancing Additional Facility Effective Date; 

  

	 	(E)	it does not have a greater principal amount of Additional Facility Commitments than the principal amount of the Refinanced Debt and accrued interest, fees, premiums (if any) and penalties thereon and reasonable fees,

ten Advances may be outstanding at any one time under each Additional Facility which is a Revolving Facility. 

  

	2.6	Nature of a Finance Party’s rights and obligations 

  

	 	(a)	The obligations of a Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several. Failure of a Finance Party to carry out those obligations does not relieve any other Party of its obligations under the Finance Documents. No
Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents. 


  
 89 









	 	(b)	The rights of a Finance Party under the Finance Documents are divided rights. A Finance Party may, except as otherwise stated in the Finance Documents, separately enforce those rights. 


 

	 	(c)	Each of the Obligors and each of the Finance Parties agrees that the Security Agent shall be the joint and several creditor (hoofdelijk crediteur) of each and every obligation of any Obligor towards each
of the Finance Parties under any Finance Document, and that accordingly the Security Agent will have its own independent claim as creditor and not as agent against each Obligor to demand performance by the relevant Obligor of those obligations.
However, any discharge of any such obligation to either of the Security Agent or the relevant Finance Party shall, to the same extent, discharge the corresponding obligation owing to the other. 


 

	 	(d)	Without limiting or affecting the Security Agent’s rights against any Obligor (whether under this paragraph or under any other provision of the Finance Documents), the Security Agent agrees with each other Finance
Party (on a several and divided basis) that, subject as set out in the next sentence, it will not exercise its rights as a joint and several creditor with a Finance Party except with the prior written consent of the relevant Finance Party. However,
for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the previous sentence shall in any way limit the Security Agent’s right to act in the protection or preservation of rights under or to enforce any Security Document or the Intercreditor Agreement as
contemplated by the Finance Documents (or to do any act reasonably incidental to any of the foregoing).

	 	(a)	The relevant Borrower shall within three Business Days of demand indemnify an L/C Bank against any cost, loss or liability incurred by such L/C Bank (otherwise than by reason of such L/C Bank’s gross negligence,

	 	(b)	Each L/C Lender shall (according to its L/C Proportion) promptly on demand indemnify an L/C Bank against any cost, loss or liability incurred by such L/C Bank (otherwise than by reason of such L/C Bank’s gross

 97 









	 	(c)	If any L/C Lender is not permitted (by its constitutional documents or any applicable law) to comply with paragraph (b) above, then that L/C Lender will not be obliged to comply with paragraph (b) above and
shall instead be deemed to have taken, on the date the relevant Documentary Credit is issued (or if later, on the date that L/C Lender’s participation in the Documentary Credit is transferred or assigned to that L/C Lender in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement), an undivided interest and participation in the Documentary Credit in an amount equal to its L/C Proportion of that Documentary Credit. On receipt of demand from the Facility Agent, that L/C Lender shall pay to the
Facility Agent (for the account of the relevant L/C Bank) an amount equal to its L/C Proportion of the amount demanded under paragraph (b) above. 

  

	 	(d)	The Borrower which requested the Documentary Credit shall within three Business Days of demand reimburse any L/C Lender for any payment it makes to an L/C Bank under this Clause 6.7 (Documentary Credit

	 	(e)	The obligations of each L/C Lender and Borrower under this Clause 6.7 (Documentary Credit Indemnities) are continuing obligations and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by that L/C Lender in
respect of any Documentary Credit, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. 

  

	 	(f)	The obligations of any L/C Lender or Borrower under this Clause 6.7 (Documentary Credit Indemnities) will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 6.7 (Documentary
Credit Indemnities) would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 6.7 (Documentary Credit Indemnities) (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any other person) including:

Lender shall pay, on or prior to the date falling three Business Days after the request by such L/C Bank, an amount equal to that Lender’s L/C Proportion of the outstanding amount of a Documentary Credit issued by such L/C Bank and in the
currency of that Documentary Credit to an interest-bearing account held in the name of that Lender with such L/C Bank. 

  

	 	(b)	The Non-Acceptable L/C Lender to whom a request has been made in accordance with paragraph (a) above shall enter into a security document or other form of collateral
arrangement over the account, in form and substance satisfactory to the relevant L/C Bank, as collateral for any amounts due and payable under the Finance Documents by that Lender to the L/C Bank in respect of that Documentary Credit.


  

	 	(c)	Until no amount is or may be outstanding under that Documentary Credit, withdrawals from the account may only be made to pay to the relevant L/C Bank amounts due and payable to the relevant L/C Bank by the Non-Acceptable L/C Lender under the Finance Documents in respect of that Documentary Credit. 

  

	 	(d)	Each Lender under a Revolving Facility shall notify the Facility Agent and UPC Broadband: 

  

	 	(i)	on the date of this Agreement or on any later date on which it becomes such a Lender in accordance with Clause 2.2 (Increase) or Clause 29 (Changes to the Parties) whether it is a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	as soon as practicable upon becoming aware of the same, that it has become a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender, 


and an indication in a Novation Certificate, a Transfer Agreement or an Increase Confirmation to that effect will constitute a notice under
paragraph (d)(i) to the Facility Agent and, upon delivery in accordance with Clause 29.11 (Copy of Novation Certificate Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation to UPC Broadband), to UPC Broadband. 

 

	 	(e)	Any notice received by the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph (d) above shall constitute notice to each L/C Bank of that Lender’s status and the Facility Agent shall, upon receiving each such notice,
promptly notify each L/C Bank of that Lender’s status as specified in that notice. 


  
 99 









	 	(f)	If a Lender who has provided cash collateral in accordance with this Clause 6.8 (Cash Collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender): 


 

	 	(i)	ceases to be a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	no amount is due and payable by that Lender in respect of a Documentary Credit, 

 that Lender
may, at any time it is not a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender, by notice to the relevant L/C Bank request that an amount equal to the amount of the cash provided by it as collateral in respect of that Documentary
Credit (together with any accrued interest) standing to the credit of the relevant account held with that L/C Bank be returned to it and that L/C Bank shall pay that amount to the Lender within three Business Days after the request from the Lender
(and shall cooperate with the Lender in order to procure that the relevant security or collateral arrangement is released and discharged). 
  

	6.9	Cash Cover by Borrower 

  

	 	(a)	If a Lender which is a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender fails to provide cash collateral (or notifies the relevant L/C Bank that it will not provide cash collateral) in accordance with
Clause 6.8 (Cash Collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender) and that L/C Bank notifies the Obligors’ Agent (with a copy to the Facility Agent) that it requires the relevant Borrower of the relevant
Documentary Credit or proposed Documentary Credit to provide cash cover to an account with that L/C Bank in an amount equal to that Lender’s L/C Proportion of the outstanding amount of that Documentary Credit and in the currency of that
Documentary Credit then that Borrower shall do so within five Business Days after the notice is given. 

  

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding Clause 1.2 (Construction), the relevant Borrower shall be entitled to withdraw amounts up to the level of that cash cover from the account if: 


 

	 	(i)	the relevant L/C Bank is satisfied that the relevant Lender is no longer a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender; 


 

	 	(ii)	the relevant Lender’s obligations in respect of the relevant Documentary Credit are transferred to a New Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or 


 

	 	(iii)	an Increase Lender has agreed to undertake the obligations in respect of the relevant Lender’s L/C Proportion of the Documentary Credit. 


 

	 	(c)	 To the extent that a Borrower has complied with its obligations to provide cash cover in accordance with this
Clause 6.9 (Cash Cover by Borrower), the relevant Lender’s L/C Proportion in respect of that Documentary Credit will remain (but that Lender’s obligations in relation to that Documentary Credit may be satisfied in accordance Clause
1.2 (Construction)). However, the 



  
 100 









	 	
relevant Borrower’s obligation to pay any Documentary Credit fee in relation to the relevant Documentary Credit to the Facility Agent (for the account of that Lender) in accordance with
Clause 23 (Fees) will be reduced proportionately as from the date on which it complies with that obligation to provide cash cover (and for so long as the relevant amount of cash cover continues to stand as collateral). 


 

	 	(d)	The relevant L/C Bank shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of the extent to which the relevant Borrower provides cash cover pursuant to this Clause 6.9 (Cash Cover by Borrower) and of any change in the amount
of cash cover so provided.

	 	(a)	UPC Broadband, with the prior written consent of the relevant Lender, may designate any Lender with an Additional Facility Commitment in relation to a Revolving Facility that permits Documentary Credits as an L/C Bank
or as a replacement therefor, but not with respect to Documentary Credits already issued by any other L/C Bank. 

  

	 	(b)	Any Lender so designated shall become an L/C Bank under this Agreement by delivering to the Facility Agent an executed L/C Bank Accession Certificate. 


 

	 	(c)	An L/C Bank may resign as issuer of further Documentary Credits at any time if (i) UPC Broadband and the Majority Lenders consent to such resignation or so require; (ii) there is, in the reasonable opinion of
each L/C Bank, an actual or potential conflict of interest in it continuing to act as L/C Bank; or (iii) its Additional Facility Commitment in relation to a relevant Revolving Facility is reduced to zero, provided that an L/C Bank shall not
resign until a replacement L/C Bank is appointed.

	 	(a)	Each Borrower may, subject to paragraph (b) below, at any time at least 35 days prior to the Final Maturity Date in respect of a Revolving Facility by delivery of a notice (a “Conversion Notice”)
to the Facility Agent, request an Ancillary Facility to be established by the conversion of any Lender’s Available Additional Facility Commitment in relation to that Revolving Facility (or any part of it) into an Ancillary Facility Commitment
with effect from the date (in this Clause 7 (Ancillary Facilities), the “Ancillary Facilities Effective Date”) specified in the Conversion Notice (being a date not less than three Business Days after the date such Conversion
Notice is received by the Facility Agent). 


  
 101 









	 	(b)	Each Conversion Notice shall specify: 

  

	 	(i)	the proposed Borrower(s) (or any Affiliate of the Borrower(s) that is a member of the Borrower Group) which may use the Ancillary Facility;

	 	(iv)	the proposed Euro Amount of the original Ancillary Facility Commitment, being an amount (A) equal to the Available Additional Facility Commitment in relation to a Revolving Facility of the nominated Ancillary
Facility Lender or, if less, (B) equal to or more than €1,000,000; 

  

	 	(v)	the Ancillary Facilities Effective Date and expiry date for the Ancillary Facility (such expiry date not to extend beyond the Final Maturity Date in respect of the relevant Revolving Facility); 


 

	 	(vi)	if the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, its maximum gross amount (that amount being the “Designated Gross Amount”) and its maximum net amount (that amount
being the “Designated Net Amount”)); and 

  

	 	(vii)	such other details as to the nature, amount, fees for and operation of the proposed Ancillary Facility as the Facility Agent and the nominated Ancillary Facility Lender may reasonably require. 


 

	 	(c)	The Facility Agent shall promptly notify UPC Broadband, the nominated Ancillary Facility Lender and the Lenders of each Conversion Notice received pursuant to paragraph (a) above. 


 

	 	(d)	Any Lender nominated as an Ancillary Facility Lender which has notified the Facility Agent of its consent to such nomination shall be authorised to make the proposed Ancillary Facility available in accordance with the
Conversion Notice (as approved by the Facility Agent) with effect on and from the Ancillary Facilities Effective Date. No other Lender shall be obliged to consent to the nomination of the Ancillary Facility Lender. 


 

	 	(e)	Any material variation from the terms of the Ancillary Facility or any proposed increase or reduction or extension of the Ancillary Facility Commitment shall be effected on and subject to the provisions of this Clause 7
(Ancillary Facilities) mutatis mutandis as if such Ancillary Facility were newly requested (including, for the avoidance of doubt, that such newly requested Ancillary Facility shall only take effect from a date not less than three
Business Days after the date the Facility Agent has received notice of the modification or variation or extension), provided that the Euro Amount of the Ancillary Facility Outstandings under each Ancillary Facility provided by an Ancillary Facility
Lender shall at no time exceed the Available Additional Facility Commitment in relation to the relevant Revolving Facility of that Ancillary Facility Lender. 


  
 102 









	 	(f)	Each relevant Borrower may (subject to compliance with the applicable terms of the relevant Ancillary Facility) at any time by giving written notice to the Facility Agent and the relevant Ancillary Facility Lender
cancel any Ancillary Facility Commitment pursuant to and in accordance with Clause 10.2 (Voluntary cancellation), provided that on the date of such cancellation, that part of such Ancillary Facility Commitment as shall have been so cancelled
shall be converted back into the Additional Facility Commitment in relation to the relevant Revolving Facility of the relevant Lender unless those Additional Facility Commitments are also cancelled on such date. 


 

	 	(g)	The Ancillary Facility Commitment of any Ancillary Facility Lender shall terminate and be cancelled on the date agreed therefor between the relevant Ancillary Facility Lender and the relevant Borrower, provided such
date shall be no later than the Final Maturity Date in respect of the relevant Revolving Facility (the “Ancillary Facility Termination Date”). Any Ancillary Facility Outstandings on the applicable Ancillary Facility Termination Date
shall be repaid in full by the relevant Borrower on such date. 

  

	 	(h)	The Additional Facility Commitment in relation to a Revolving Facility of each Lender at any time shall be reduced by the amount of any relevant Ancillary Facility Commitment of such Lender at such time but such reduced
Commitment shall, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement, automatically be increased by the amount of any portion of its Ancillary Facility Commitment which ceases to be made available to the relevant Borrowers for any reason (other than
as a result of an Advance of it) in accordance with the terms of such Ancillary Facility or is cancelled pursuant to paragraphs (f) or (g) above. 

  

	7.2	Operation of Ancillary Facilities 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, the terms governing the operation of any Ancillary Facility (including the rate of interest (including default interest), fees, commission and other remuneration in respect of such
Ancillary Facility) shall be those determined by agreement between the Ancillary Facility Lender and the relevant Borrower, provided that such terms shall be based upon the normal commercial terms and market rates of the relevant Ancillary Facility
Lender. 

  

	 	(b)	In the case of any inconsistency or conflict between the terms of any Ancillary Facility, the applicable Ancillary Facility Documents and this Agreement, the terms and provisions of the applicable Ancillary Facility
Document shall prevail unless the contrary intention is expressly provided for in this Agreement. 

  

	 	(c)	 Each relevant Borrower and Ancillary Facility Lender will promptly upon request by the Facility Agent, supply the
Facility Agent with such information relating to the operation of each Ancillary Facility (including without limitation details of the Ancillary Facility Outstandings and the Euro Amount




  
 103 









	 	
thereof) as the Facility Agent may from time to time reasonably request (and each relevant Borrower consents to such documents and information being provided to the Facility Agent and the other
Lenders). 

  

	7.3	Ancillary Facility Default 

  

	 	(a)	If a default occurs under any Ancillary Facility, no Ancillary Facility Lender may demand repayment of any monies or demand cash cover for any Ancillary Facility Outstandings, or take any analogous action in respect of
any Ancillary Facility, until the Acceleration Date. 

  

	 	(b)	If an Acceleration Date occurs, the claims of each Lender with an Additional Facility Commitment in relation to a Revolving Facility and each Ancillary Facility Lender in respect of amounts outstanding to them under
that Revolving Facility and the related Ancillary Facilities respectively shall be adjusted in accordance with this Clause 7.3 (Ancillary Facility Default) by making all necessary transfers of such portions of such claims such that following
such transfers the outstandings under that Revolving Facility Outstandings and the related Ancillary Facility Outstandings (together with the rights to receive interest, fees and charges in relation thereto) of (i) each Lender with an
Additional Facility Commitment in relation to that Revolving Facility and (ii) each Ancillary Facility Lender, in each case as at the Acceleration Date shall be an amount corresponding pro rata to the proportion that the sum of such
Lender’s Additional Facility Commitment in relation to that Revolving Facility and/or (as the case may be) related Ancillary Facility Commitment bears to the sum of all of the Additional Facility Commitments in relation to that Revolving
Facility and the related Ancillary Facility Commitments, each as at the Acceleration Date. 

  

	 	(c)	No later than the third Business Day following the Acceleration Date each of the Ancillary Facility Lenders shall notify the Facility Agent in writing of the Euro Amount of its Ancillary Facility Outstandings as at the
close of business on the Acceleration Date, such amount to take account of any clearing of debits which were entered into the clearing system of such Ancillary Facility Lenders prior to the Acceleration Date and any amounts credited to the relevant
accounts prior to close of business on the Acceleration Date. 

  

	 	(d)	On receipt of the information referred to in paragraph (c) above, the Facility Agent will promptly determine what adjustment payments (if any) are necessary as between the Lenders participating in that Revolving
Facility and each related Ancillary Facility Lender in order to ensure that, following such adjustment payments, the requirements of paragraph (b) above are complied with. 


 

	 	(e)	The Facility Agent will notify all the Lenders as soon as practicable of its determinations pursuant to paragraph (d) above, giving details of the adjustment payments required to be made. Such adjustment payments
shall be payable by the relevant Lenders and shall be made to the Facility Agent within 5 Business Days following receipt of such notification from the Facility Agent. The Facility Agent shall distribute the adjustment payments received, among the
Ancillary Facility Lenders and the Lenders participating in that Revolving Facility in order to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (b) above. 


  
 104 









	 	(f)	If at any time following the Acceleration Date, the amount of amounts outstanding under a Revolving Facility of any Lender or related Ancillary Facility Outstandings of any Ancillary Facility Lender used in the Facility
Agent’s calculation of the adjustments required under paragraph (d) above should vary for any reason (other than as a result of currency exchange fluctuation or other reason which affects all relevant Lenders equally), further adjustment
payments shall be made on the same basis (mutatis mutandis) provided for in this Clause 7.3 (Ancillary Facility Default). 

  

	 	(g)	In respect of any amount paid by any Lender (a “Paying Lender”) pursuant to either of paragraphs (e) or (f) above, as between a relevant Borrower and the Paying Lender, the amount so paid shall be
immediately due and payable by such relevant Borrower to the Paying Lender and the payment obligations of such relevant Borrower to the Lender(s) which received such payment shall be treated as correspondingly reduced by the amount of such payment.


  

	 	(h)	Each Lender shall promptly supply to the Facility Agent such information as the Facility Agent may from time to time request for the purpose of giving effect to this Clause 7.3 (Ancillary Facility Default).


  

	 	(i)	If an Ancillary Facility Lender has the benefit of any Security Interest securing any of its Ancillary Facilities, the realisations from such security when enforced will be treated as an amount recovered by such
Ancillary Facility Lender in its capacity as a Lender which is subject to the sharing arrangements in Clause 33 (Pro Rata Sharing) to the intent that such realisation should benefit all Lenders pro rata. 


 

	7.4	Repayment of Ancillary Facilities 

  

	 	(a)	No Ancillary Facility Lender may demand repayment or prepayment of any amounts under its Ancillary Facility unless: 

  

	 	(i)	the Additional Facility Commitment in relation to the relevant Revolving Facility has been cancelled in full, or the Facility Agent has declared all amounts outstanding under the relevant Revolving Facility immediately
due and payable; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Ancillary Facility Outstandings under that Ancillary Facility can be repaid by an Advance under the relevant Revolving Facility (and not less than 7 Business Days’ notice (or such shorter period as agreed to by
UPC Broadband) is given to the relevant Borrower before payment becomes due). 

  

	 	(b)	For the purposes of repaying Ancillary Facility Outstandings (so long as paragraph (a)(i) above does not apply) an Advance under the relevant Revolving Facility may be borrowed irrespective of whether a Default is
continuing or any other applicable condition precedent not satisfied. 


  
 105 









	 	(c)	The share of the Ancillary Facility Lender in an Advance under the relevant Revolving Facility being used to refinance that Ancillary Facility Lender’s Ancillary Facility will be that amount which will result (so
far as possible) in: 

  

	 	(i)	the proportion which its share of all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility bears to the aggregate amount of the amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility, 


being equal to: 
  

	 	(ii)	the proportion which its Available Commitment with respect to that Revolving Facility bears to the aggregate of the Available Commitments with respect to that Revolving Facility, 


in each case, assuming the repayment of the relevant Ancillary Facility has taken place. The share of the other Lenders in any such Advance
under the Revolving Facility will be adjusted accordingly. 
  

	7.5	Continuation of Ancillary Facilities 

  

	 	(a)	A Borrower and an Ancillary Facility Lender may, as between themselves only, agree to continue to provide the same banking facilities following the Final Maturity Date applicable to a Revolving Facility or, as the case
may be, the Additional Facility Commitments in relation to a Revolving Facility are cancelled under this Agreement. 

  

	 	(b)	If any arrangement contemplated in paragraph (a) above is to occur, the relevant Borrower and the Ancillary Facility Lender shall each confirm that to be the case in writing to the Facility Agent. Upon such Final
Maturity Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, any such facility shall continue as between the said entities on a bilateral basis and not as part of, or under, the Finance Documents. Save for any rights and obligations against any
Finance Party under the Finance Documents prior to such Final Maturity Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation, no such rights or obligations in respect of such Ancillary Facility shall, as between the Finance Parties, continue and the
Security shall not support any such facility in respect of any matters that arise after such Final Maturity Date or, as the case may be, date of cancellation. 

  

	7.6	Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Facility Lenders 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Lender may become an Ancillary Facility Lender. In such case, the Lender and its Affiliate shall be treated as a single Lender whose Additional Facility
Commitment in relation to a relevant Revolving Facility is the amount set out opposite the relevant Lender’s name in the relevant Additional Facility Accession Agreement and/or the amount of any relevant Additional Facility Commitment
transferred to or assumed by that Lender under this Agreement, to the extent (in each case) not cancelled, reduced or transferred by it under this Agreement (as applicable). For the purposes of calculating the Lender’s Available Commitment with
respect to the relevant Revolving Facility, the Lender’s Commitment shall be reduced to the extent of the aggregate of the Ancillary Facility Commitments of its Affiliates. 


  
 106 









	 	(b)	UPC Broadband shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Lender in any Conversion Notice delivered by UPC Broadband to the Facility Agent pursuant to Clause 7.1 (Utilisation of Ancillary Facilities).


  

	 	(c)	An Affiliate of a Lender which becomes an Ancillary Facility Lender shall accede to this Agreement as an Ancillary Facility Lender, and the Intercreditor Agreement as a Senior Lender (as defined therein).


  

	 	(d)	If a Lender assigns all of its rights and benefits or transfers all of its rights and obligations to a New Lender (in accordance with Clause 29 (Changes to the Parties), its Affiliate shall cease to have any
obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Facility Document. 

  

	 	(e)	Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on an Ancillary Facility Lender and the relevant Ancillary Facility Lender is an Affiliate of a Lender which is not a party to that document, the
relevant Lender shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate. 

  

	7.7	Affiliates of Borrowers 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Borrower that is a member of the Borrower Group may with the approval of the relevant Ancillary Facility Lender become a Borrower with respect to an Ancillary
Facility. 

  

	 	(b)	UPC Broadband shall specify any relevant Affiliate of the Borrower in any Conversion Notice delivered by UPC Broadband to the Facility Agent pursuant to Clause 7.1 (Utilisation of Ancillary Facilities).


  

	 	(c)	If any Borrower ceases to be a Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Clause 29 (Changes to the Parties), any of its Affiliates that are not an Affiliate of another Borrower shall cease to have any
rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Facility Document. 

  

	 	(d)	Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on a Borrower under an Ancillary Facility and the relevant Borrower is an Affiliate of a Borrower which is not a party to that document, the
relevant Borrower shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate. 

  

	 	(e)	Any reference in this Agreement or any other Finance Document to a Borrower being under no obligations (whether actual or contingent) as a Borrower under such Finance Document shall be construed to include a reference
to any Affiliate of a Borrower being under no obligations under any Finance Document or Ancillary Facility Document.

	8.	OPTIONAL CURRENCIES 

  

	8.1	Selection of Currency 

 Each Borrower under an Additional Facility that is a Revolving

	 	(a)	If before the Specified Time on the Quotation Date for the relevant Advance: 

  

	 	(i)	a Lender notifies the Facility Agent that the relevant Optional Currency is not readily available to it in the amount required; or 

  

	 	(ii)	a Lender notifies the Facility Agent that compliance with its obligation to participate in the Advance in the proposed Optional Currency would contravene a law or regulation applicable to it, 


the Facility Agent will give notice to the relevant Borrower to that effect by the Specified Time. In this event, any Lender that gives notice
pursuant to this Clause 8.2 will be required to participate in the relevant Advance in Euros (in an amount equal to that Lender’s Proportion of the Euro Amount of the relevant Advance or, in respect of a Rollover Advance, an amount equal to
that Lender’s Proportion of the Euro Amount of any amount that the Lenders are actually required to advance in accordance with Clause 9.2 (Rollover Advances)), and its participation will be treated as a separate Advance denominated in
Euros during that Interest Period. 
  

	 	(b)	Any part of an Advance treated as a separate Advance under this Clause 8 (Optional Currencies) will not be taken into account for the purposes of any limit on the number of Advances or currencies outstanding at
any one time.

 Without prejudice to each Borrower’s obligation to repay the
full amount of each Advance in relation to a Revolving Facility made to it on the last day of the Interest Period for that Advance, where, on the same day on which such Borrower is due to repay an Advance in relation to a Revolving Facility (a
“Maturing Advance”) such Borrower has also requested that one or more Advances in relation to that Revolving Facility in the same currency as and in an amount which is equal to or less than the Maturing Advance be made to it (a
“Rollover Advance”), subject to the Lenders being obliged to make such Rollover Advance under Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent), the aggregate amount of the Rollover Advance shall be treated as if applied in or
towards repayment of the Maturing Advance so that: 
  

	 	(a)	if the amount of the Maturing Advance exceeds the aggregate amount of the Rollover Advance: 

  

	 	(i)	the relevant Borrower will only be required to pay an amount in cash in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and 

  

	 	(ii)	each Lender’s participation (if any) in the Rollover Advance shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation (if any) in the

	 	(ii)	each Lender will be required to make its participation in the Revolving Facility available in cash only to the extent that its participation (if any) in the Rollover Advance exceeds that Lender’s participation (if
any) in the Maturing Advance and the remainder of that Lender’s participation in the Rollover Advance shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation in the
Maturing Advance. 

  

	9.3	Cash Collateralisation of Documentary Credits 

  

	 	(a)	If not previously repaid in accordance with paragraph (b) below, each Borrower must repay each Documentary Credit issued on its behalf in full on the date stated in that Documentary Credit to be its Expiry Date.


  

	 	(b)	 A Borrower may give the Facility Agent not less than five Business Days prior written notice of its intention to
repay all or any portion of a Documentary Credit requested by it prior to its stated Expiry Date and, having given such notice, shall procure that the relevant Outstanding L/C Amount in respect of such Documentary Credit is reduced in accordance
with such notice by providing cash cover therefor in accordance with Clause 1.2 (Construction) (in 



  
 109 









	 	
each case) or by reducing the Outstanding L/C Amount of such Documentary Credit or by cancelling such Documentary Credit and returning the original to the relevant L/C Bank or the Facility Agent
on behalf of the Lenders. 

  

	9.4	Notification 

 The Agent shall notify the relevant Lender(s) and UPC Broadband of
US Dollar, Additional Currency or Optional Currency amounts (and the applicable Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange) promptly after they are ascertained under this Agreement.

	 	(d)	UPC Broadband Holdco shall not enter into a merger or consolidation with or into a Shareholder (the resulting entity being the “UPC Merged Entity”) unless: 


 

	 	(i)	reasonable details of the proposed merger concerning the matters set out in paragraphs (d)(ii) and (d)(iii) below are provided to the Facility Agent at least 10 days before the merger is to be entered into;


  

	 	(ii)	the UPC Merged Entity will be liable for the obligations of UPC Broadband Holdco (including the obligations under the Finance Documents), which obligations will continue in full force and effect after the merger, and
entitled to the benefit of all rights of UPC Broadband Holdco; and 

  

	 	(iii)	the UPC Merged Entity has entered into Security Documents (if applicable) which provide security over the same assets of at least an equivalent nature and ranking to the security provided by UPC Broadband Holdco
pursuant to any Security Documents entered into by it and such Security Documents are the legal, valid and binding obligations of UPC Merged Entity enforceable in accordance with their terms subject (to the extent applicable) to substantially
similar qualifications to those made in the legal opinions referred to in Schedule 2 (Conditions Precedent Documents). 

  

	10.5	Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds 

  

	 	(a)	Other than as provided in paragraph (b) below, on a Permitted Disposal (other than (i) the first €250,000,000 of Net Proceeds (or, if greater, an amount equal to five per cent. of Total Assets) of each
Content Transaction or (ii) a disposal in accordance with paragraphs (b)(i) to 19.11(b)(xlv) of Clause 19.11 (Disposals)), UPC Broadband shall procure that an amount of the Facilities is prepaid which is equal to the lesser of:


  

	 	(i)	the amount of the Net Proceeds of such a disposal; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 an amount so as to ensure that the financial ratio set out in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) for the most
recent Ratio Period ending prior to the 



  
 115 









	 	
receipt of such Net Proceeds would not be breached if such financial ratio was tested for that most recent Ratio Period taking into account (on a
pro-forma basis) all disposals made since the last day of that Ratio Period and the amount of such prepayment (but ignoring such Net Proceeds), 


provided that there shall be no requirement to make a prepayment if the financial ratio set out in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) was
not required to be tested for the most recent Ratio Period ending prior to the receipt of such Net Proceeds. 
 Such amount shall be applied
against the Additional Facilities in accordance with Clause 10.6(a) (Order of application). 
  

	 	(b)	No prepayment in accordance with paragraph (a) above is required: 

  

	 	(i)	where the amount of any such prepayment would be less than the greater of €250,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) and five per cent. of Total Assets; and 


 

	 	(ii)	in connection with any Permitted Disposal where an amount equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be prepaid under paragraph (a) above is reinvested in assets in the Business (for the avoidance of
doubt, including Permitted Acquisitions, Capital Expenditure, Operational Expenditure and Permitted Joint Ventures) provided that any amount that has not been: 

  

	 	(A)	reinvested or contracted to be so reinvested within 12 months of the relevant Permitted Disposal; and 

  

	 	(B)	if contracted to be reinvested, so reinvested within 18 months of the relevant Permitted Disposal (“Reinvestment End Date”), 


shall be applied in prepayment of the Facilities in accordance with Clause 10.6(a) (Order of application), and provided further that on
the Reinvestment End Date, UPC Broadband shall procure that an amount of the Facilities is prepaid which is equal to the lesser of: 
  

	 	(1)	the amount of the Net Proceeds of such a disposal; and 

  

	 	(2)	an amount so as to ensure that the financial ratio set out in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) for the most recent Ratio Period ending prior to the Reinvestment End Date would not be breached if such financial ratio
was tested for that most recent Ratio Period taking into account (on a pro-forma basis) all disposals made since the last day of that Ratio Period and the amount of such prepayment (but without taking
into account in the calculation of Cash any Net Proceeds that have not been reinvested as at such Reinvestment End Date), 


  
 116 








 provided that there shall be no requirement to make a prepayment if the financial ratio set out
in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) was not required to be tested for the most recent Ratio Period ending prior to the Reinvestment End Date. 
  

	10.6	Order of application 

  

	 	(a)	The amount of each prepayment of the Additional Facilities made under Clause 10.5 (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) shall be applied against the Additional Facilities in such proportion as may be
specified to the Facility Agent by UPC Broadband not less than two Business Days before the date on which the prepayment is due to be made and against all the outstanding Utilisations made under the relevant Additional Facility pro rata (and, if
applicable, against the Repayment Instalments for the relevant Additional Facility or Additional Facilities in such order as may be specified by UPC Broadband). 

  

	 	(b)	If UPC Broadband does not give a notice to the Facility Agent specifying how amounts are to be applied in prepayment under Clause 10.5 (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) within the time period
specified in paragraph (a) above, the amount of the relevant prepayment shall be applied: 

  

	 	(i)	first pro rata between outstanding Advances under the Term Facilities (and, if applicable, against the Repayment Instalments for the relevant Additional Facility or Additional Facilities in such order as may be
specified by UPC Broadband); 

  

	 	(ii)	second pro rata between outstanding Utilisations under Revolving Facilities (provided that Advances shall be prepaid before any Outstanding L/C Amounts (which shall then be prepaid on a pro rata basis)), in each
case with a corresponding permanent cancellation of the Total Additional Facility Commitments (pro rata between the Additional Facility Commitments of the Lenders under each Revolving Facility); 


 

	 	(iii)	then, in: 

  

	 	(A)	repayment of outstanding Utilisations under Ancillary Facilities (and cancellation of corresponding Ancillary Facility Commitments); and 


 

	 	(B)	cancellation of Ancillary Facility Commitments; and 

  

	 	(iv)	finally, (on a pro rata basis) cancellation of Total Additional Facility Commitments in relation to any Revolving Facilities. 

  

	 	(c)	Unless the relevant Borrower makes an election under paragraph (d) below or notifies the Facility Agent that it intends to reinvest the Net Proceeds in assets in the Business of the Borrower Group in accordance
with Clause 10.5 (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) above, it shall prepay Advances promptly upon receipt of the Net Proceeds of the disposal. 


  
 117 









	 	(d)	A Borrower may elect that any prepayment under Clause 10.5 (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) be applied in prepayment of an Advance on the last day of the Interest Period relating to that Advance. If
the relevant Borrower makes that election then a proportion of the Advance equal to the amount of the relevant prepayment will be due and payable on the last day of its Interest Period. 


 

	10.7	Right of prepayment and cancellation in relation to a single Lender 

  

	 	(a)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	any sum payable to any Lender, Ancillary Facility Lender or L/C Bank by an Obligor is required to be increased under Clause 13.2(c) (Tax gross-up); 


 

	 	(ii)	any Lender, Ancillary Facility Lender or L/C Bank claims indemnification from UPC Broadband or a Borrower under Clause 13.4 (Tax indemnity) or Clause 15.1 (Increased Costs); or 


 

	 	(iii)	any Lender, Ancillary Facility Lender or L/C Bank invokes Clause 14.3 (Market Disruption) or Clause 16 (Illegality and Mitigation), 


then, subject to paragraph (c) below: 
  

	 	(A)	if the circumstance relates to a Lender, UPC Broadband may: 

  

	 	(1)	arrange for the transfer or assignment in accordance with this Agreement of the whole (but at par only) of that Lender’s Commitment and participation in the Utilisations to a new or existing Lender willing to
accept that transfer or assignment; or 

  

	 	(2)	give the Facility Agent notice of cancellation of that Lender’s Commitment and UPC Broadband’s intention to procure the repayment of that Lender’s participation in the Utilisation, whereupon the
Commitment of that Lender shall immediately be reduced to zero; 

  

	 	(B)	if the circumstance relates to an Ancillary Facility Lender, UPC Broadband may give the Facility Agent notice of cancellation of that Ancillary Facility Lender’s Ancillary Facility Commitment and UPC
Broadband’s intention to procure the repayment of the utilisations of any Ancillary Facility granted by that Ancillary Facility Lender, whereupon the Ancillary Facility Commitment of that Ancillary Facility Lender shall immediately be reduced
to zero; and 

  

	 	(C)	 if the circumstance relates to an L/C Bank, UPC Broadband may give the Facility Agent notice of repayment of any




  
 118 









	 	
outstanding Documentary Credit issued by such L/C Bank and cancellation of the appointment of such L/C Bank as an L/C Bank under this Agreement in relation to any Documentary Credit to be issued
in the future or the provision of full cash cover in respect of such L/C Bank’s maximum contingent liability under each outstanding Documentary Credit. 

  

	 	(b)	On the last day of each Interest Period or Term which ends after UPC Broadband has given notice under paragraph (a)(iii)(A)(2), (a)(iii)(B) or (a)(iii)(C) above (or, if earlier, the date specified by UPC Broadband in
that notice), each Borrower to which a Utilisation or utilisation of an Ancillary Facility is outstanding shall repay that Lender’s participation in that Utilisation or the utilisation of the Ancillary Facility granted by that Ancillary
Facility Lender (together with all interest and other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents) or, as the case may be, provide full cash cover in respect of any Documentary Credit issued by that L/C Bank or any contingent liability under an
Ancillary Facility. 

  

	 	(c)	UPC Broadband may only exercise its rights under paragraph (a) above if: 

  

	 	(i)	in the case of paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) above, the circumstance giving rise to the requirement or indemnification continues or, in the case of (a)(iii) no more than 90 days have elapsed since the relevant invoking
of Clause 14.3 (Market Disruption and Alternative Interest Rates); and 

  

	 	(ii)	it gives the Facility Agent and the relevant Lender not less than five Business Days prior notice. 

  

	 	(d)	The replacement of a Lender pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii)(A)(1) above shall be subject to the following conditions: 

  

	 	(i)	no Finance Party shall have any obligation to find a replacement Lender; 

  

	 	(ii)	any replaced Lender shall not be required to refund, or to pay or surrender to any other Lender, any of the fees or other amounts received by that replaced Lender under any Finance Document; and 


 

	 	(iii)	any replacement of a Lender which is the Facility Agent shall not affect its role as the Facility Agent. 

  

	10.8	Right of Cancellation in Relation to a Defaulting Lender 

 Without prejudice to UPC
Broadband’s rights under Clause 2.2 (Increase): 
  

	 	(a)	If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, UPC Broadband may, at any time whilst the Lender continues to be a Defaulting Lender, give the Facility Agent three Business Days’ notice of cancellation of each Available
Commitment of that Lender. 


  
 119 









	 	(b)	On the notice referred to in paragraph (a) above becoming effective, each Available Commitment of the Defaulting Lender shall immediately be reduced to zero.

	10.9	Miscellaneous provisions 

  

	 	(a)	Any notice of prepayment given by a Borrower pursuant to Clause 10.3 (Voluntary prepayment) or Clause 10.7 (Right of prepayment and cancellation in relation to a single Lender) and a notice of cancellation
pursuant to Clause 10.2 (Voluntary cancellation) shall be irrevocable, shall specify the date upon which such prepayment is to be made and the amount of such prepayment and shall oblige that Borrower to make such prepayment on such date,
provided that a notice of prepayment or cancellation may be conditional and not irrevocable provided that UPC Broadband or a Borrower shall within 10 Business Days’ notice from the Facility Agent indemnify any Lender in respect, and in the
amount, of such Lender’s Break Costs as specified in such notice should cancellation or prepayment not occur on the date specified in the notice of cancellation or prepayment. 


 

	 	(b)	All prepayments under this Agreement shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount prepaid and any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of that prepayment and, subject to Clause 26.4 (Break
Costs), without premium or penalty. 

  

	 	(c)	No prepayment or cancellation is permitted except in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	The amount of an Advance prepaid by UPC Broadband in accordance with Clause 10.3 (Voluntary prepayment) may, if specified in the relevant Additional Facility Accession Agreement, be
re-borrowed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. No other amount prepaid under this Agreement may subsequently be re-borrowed other than an Advance or any
Documentary Credit in relation to a Revolving Facility repaid in accordance with this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, unless expressly agreed to the contrary in the relevant Ancillary Facility Documents, this paragraph (d) shall not
apply to any Ancillary Facility. 

  

	 	(e)	No amount of any Additional Facility Commitment cancelled under this Agreement may subsequently be reinstated. 

  

	 	(f)	Any prepayment in part of any Advance shall be applied against the participations of the Lenders in that Advance pro rata. 


  
 120 









	11.	INTEREST 

  

	11.1	Interest rate 

 The rate of interest on each Advance for its Interest Period is the rate
per annum determined by the Facility Agent to be the aggregate of: 
  

	 	(a)	the applicable Margin; and 

  

	 	(b)	(i)                LIBOR (in the case of an Advance denominated in any currency other than Euros); or 


 

	 	(ii)	EURIBOR (in the case of an Advance denominated in Euros). 

  

	11.2	Selection of Interest Periods 

  

	 	(a)	The Interest Period of each Advance will be the period selected by the Request for that Advance and each subsequent Interest Period (in relation to a Term Facility only) will be the period selected by the Borrower by
notice to the Facility Agent received not later than the third Business Day before the end of the then current Interest Period under that Term Facility. 

  

	 	(b)	The duration of each Interest Period for each Advance under a Term Facility shall, save as otherwise provided in this Agreement, be 1, 2, 3 or 6 months, or, in each case, such other period of up to 12 months as the
Lenders whose Commitments under the relevant Term Facility that aggregate more than 50% of the aggregate Commitments under that Term Facility may agree with the Borrower. Each Interest Period for a Term Facility Advance will commence on its
Utilisation Date or in the case of each subsequent Interest Period the expiry of its preceding Interest Period. 

  

	 	(c)	Each Advance under a Revolving Facility has one Interest Period only. The duration of each Interest Period for an Advance under a Revolving Facility shall, save as otherwise provided in this Agreement, be a period of
any number of days from and including 1 day to and including 30 days or 1, 2, 3 or 6 months or such other period of up to 12 months as the Lenders whose Commitments under the relevant Revolving Facility that aggregate more than 50% of the aggregate
Commitments under that Revolving Facility may agree with the Borrower prior to submission of the relevant Request provided that such period shall end on or before the Final Maturity Date in respect of that Revolving Facility. Each Interest Period
for an Advance under a Revolving Facility will commence on its Utilisation Date. 

  

	11.3	Non-Business Days 

 If an Interest Period would
otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period shall instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 

 

	11.4	Further Adjustments to Interest Periods 

 If an Interest Period for an Advance would
otherwise overrun the relevant Final Maturity Date, it shall be shortened so that it ends on that Final Maturity Date. 
  

	11.5	Other adjustments 

 The Facility Agent and the Borrowers may enter into such other
arrangements as they may agree for the adjustment of Interest Periods and the consolidation and/or splitting of Advances. 

  
 121 









	11.6	Notification 

 The Facility Agent shall notify the relevant Borrower and the Lenders of
the duration of each Interest Period promptly after ascertaining its duration. 
  

	11.7	Due dates 

 Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, accrued interest on each
Advance is payable by the relevant Borrower on its Interest Date and also, in the case of any Advance with an Interest Period longer than six months, at six monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period for so long as the Interest
Period continues. 
  

	11.8	Default interest 

  

	 	(a)	If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under the Finance Documents, it shall forthwith on demand by the Facility Agent pay interest on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment,
both before and after judgment, at a rate (the “default rate”) determined by the Facility Agent to be two per cent. per annum above the rate which would have been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted an Advance at the Margin applicable to a new Advance if it had been drawn down at such time in the currency of the Unpaid Sum for such successive Interest Periods of such duration (not being
more than three months) as the Facility Agent may determine, having regard to the likely duration of the default (a “Designated Term”). 

  

	 	(b)	The default rate will be determined on each Business Day or the first day of, or two Business Days before the first day of, the relevant Designated Term, as appropriate. 


 

	 	(c)	Default interest will be compounded at the end of each Designated Term. 

  

	11.9	Notification of rates of interest 

  

	 	(a)	The Facility Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Borrowers and the Lenders of each determination of LIBOR, EURIBOR and any change to the proposed length of a Term or Interest Period or any interest rate occasioned
by the operation of Clause 14 (Market Disruption and Alternative Interest Rates). 

  

	 	(b)	The Facility Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower (or UPC Broadband) of each Funding Rate relating to an Advance. 

  

	12.	PAYMENTS 

  

	12.1	Place of Payment 

 All payments by an Obligor or a Lender under this Agreement shall be
made to the Facility Agent to its account at such office or bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the currency concerned (or, in the case of Euros, the financial centre of such of the Participating Member States or London) as the
Facility Agent may notify to the Obligor or Lender for this purpose. 

  
 122 









	12.2	Funds 

 Payments under this Agreement to the Facility Agent shall be made for value on
the due date at such times and in such funds as the Facility Agent may specify to the Party concerned as being customary at the time for the settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place for payment. 

 

	12.3	Distribution 

  

	 	(a)	Each payment received by the Facility Agent under this Agreement for another Party shall, except as set out in paragraph (d) below and subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below, be made available by the Facility
Agent to that Party by payment (on the date of value of receipt and in the currency and funds of receipt) to its account with such bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant currency (or, in the case of Euros, in the
principal financial centre of such of the Participating Member States or London) as it may notify to the Facility Agent for this purpose by not less than five Business Days’ prior notice. 


 

	 	(b)	The Facility Agent may apply any amount received by it for an Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from an Obligor under this Agreement in the same
currency on such date or in or towards the purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied. 

  

	 	(c)	Where a sum is to be paid under this Agreement to the Facility Agent for the account of another Party, the Facility Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that Party until it has established that it has actually
received that sum. The Facility Agent may, however, assume that the sum has been paid to it in accordance with this Agreement and, in reliance on that assumption, make available to that Party a corresponding amount. If the sum has not been made
available but the Facility Agent has paid a corresponding amount to another Party, that Party shall forthwith on demand refund the corresponding amount to the Facility Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date
of receipt, calculated at a rate reasonably determined by the Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds. 

  

	 	(d)	Subject to paragraph (c) above, in the case of a Mid-Interest Period Transfer, the Facility Agent shall: 


 

	 	(i)	make any interest payable in respect of the principal amount that is assigned, transferred or novated under a Mid-Interest Period Transfer, that accrues on and prior to the date
on which the Mid-Interest Period Transfer becomes effective, available to the Existing Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	make any interest payable in respect of the principal amount that is assigned, transferred or novated as a Mid-Interest Period Transfer, that accrues after the date on which the Mid-Interest Period Transfer becomes effective, available to the New Lender, 


  
 123 








 such payments shall be paid (on the date of value of receipt and in the currency and funds of
receipt) to the Existing Lenders’ account or the New Lenders’ account (as applicable) with such bank and in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant currency (or in the case of Euros, in the principal financial centre
of one of the Participating Member States or London) as it may notify to the Facility Agent for this purpose by not less than five Business Days’ prior notice. 
  

	12.4	Currency 

  

	 	(a)	A repayment or prepayment of an Advance is payable in the currency in which the Advance is denominated. 

  

	 	(b)	All interest is payable in the currency in which the relevant amount in respect of which it is payable is denominated. 

  

	 	(c)	Amounts payable in respect of costs, expenses, Taxes and the like are payable in the currency in which they are incurred. 

  

	 	(d)	Any other amount payable under this Agreement is, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, payable in Euros. 

  

	12.5	Reductions 

 Any repayment of any Advance denominated in an Optional Currency shall
reduce the amount of such Advance by the amount of such Optional Currency repaid and shall reduce the Euro Amount of such Advance proportionately. 
  

	12.6	Set-off and counterclaim 

 All payments made by
an Obligor under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim. 
  

	12.7	Non-Business Days 

  

	 	(a)	If a payment under this Agreement is due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date for that payment shall instead be the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business
Day (if there is not). 

  

	 	(b)	During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal at the rate payable on the original due date. 


 

	12.8	Partial payments 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if the Facility Agent receives a payment insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under this Agreement, the Facility Agent shall apply that
payment towards the obligations of the Obligors under this Agreement in the following order: 

  

	 	(i)	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid costs, fees and expenses of the Facility Agent, the Security Agent and each L/C Bank under this Agreement; 


  
 124 









	 	(ii)	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued fees (other than any commitment fees payable under Clause 23.1 (Commitment fee) or Documentary Credit fees payable under Clause 23.4 (Documentary
Credit Fee)) due but unpaid under Clause 23 (Fees); 

  

	 	(iii)	thirdly, in or towards payment to the Lenders pro rata of any accrued interest (including, where a Mid-Interest Period Transfer has taken place towards payment to
the Existing Lenders and the New Lenders pro rata), Documentary Credit fees and commitment fees due but unpaid under this Agreement; 

  

	 	(iv)	fourthly, in or towards payment to the Lenders pro rata of any principal due but unpaid under this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(v)	fifthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	(b)	Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Facility Agent shall, if so directed by the affected Lenders, vary the order set out in paragraphs (a)(ii) to (a)(v) above. The Facility Agent shall notify UPC Broadband of
any such variation. 

  

	 	(c)	Paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall override any appropriation made by any Obligor. 

  

	12.9	Impaired Agent 

  

	 	(a)	If, at any time, the Facility Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, an Obligor or a Lender which is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to the Facility Agent may instead either pay that amount direct to
the required recipient or pay that amount to an interest-bearing account (the “Trust Account”) held with an Acceptable Bank within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of “Acceptable Bank” and in
relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Obligor or the Lender making the payment and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Finance Party beneficially entitled to that payment under the
Finance Documents. In each case such payments must be made within five Business Days of the due date for payment under the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	(b)	All interest accrued on the amount standing to the credit of the Trust Account shall be for the benefit of the beneficiaries of that Trust Account pro rata to their respective entitlements. 


 

	 	(c)	A party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 12.9 (Impaired Agent) shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under the Finance Documents and shall not take any credit risk with
respect to the amounts standing to the credit of the Trust Account. 


  
 125 









	 	(d)	Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Facility Agent in accordance with Clause 22.14 (Resignation of Agents), each Party which has made a payment to a Trust Account in accordance with this Clause 12.9
(Impaired Agent) shall give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the Trust Account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Facility Agent for distribution in accordance with this
Agreement.

formalities and provide any information, in each case on a timely basis, necessary for that Obligor to obtain authorisation to make that payment without a Tax Deduction (or with a reduced rate of such Tax Deduction). 


 

	 	(g)	Each party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction. No party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes
such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction (other than a payment or compensation in respect of any payments due to a Lender which is a special purpose vehicle that has issued notes and
advanced all of the proceeds of such notes to a member of the Borrower Group pursuant to an Advance under an Additional Facility (except where the relevant FATCA Deduction arises from any non-compliance with
any law, regulation or other obligation in respect of FATCA by a holder of such notes)). 

  

	13.3	Lender Tax Status 

  

	 	(a)	Solely in the case of a Tax Deduction imposed by a jurisdiction other than the United States in the case of a US Borrower, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Clause 13 (Tax
Gross-up and Indemnities): 

  

	 	(i)	each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made by a Borrower under any Finance Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Facility Agent, at the time
or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Facility Agent (and promptly after the occurrence of a change in the Lender’s circumstance requiring a change in the most recent documentation previously delivered), such properly completed
and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding; and 


  
 127 









	 	(ii)	each Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Facility Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by an applicable requirement of law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Facility
Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Facility Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements. In the event that any Lender fails to comply with the foregoing requirement, any
Borrower shall be permitted to withhold and retain an amount in respect of the applicable withholding tax (excluding for the avoidance of doubt, any withholding tax imposed by the United States in the case of a US Borrower) estimated in good faith
by the Borrowers to be required to be withheld in respect of interest payable to such Lender. Neither UPC Broadband nor any Obligor is required to make a Tax Payment to a Lender under this Agreement to the extent such Taxes are attributable to a
failure by a Lender to provide the documentation required to be delivered pursuant to the first sentence of this Clause 13.3(a). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 13.3(a) shall be understood to affect the rights of Lenders to a gross-up in respect of a Tax Deduction levied in the United States in the case of a US Borrower, but only to the extent permitted under Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up).


  

	 	(b)	Each Finance Party shall confirm whether it is entitled to receive payments under the Finance Documents free from withholding under FATCA and shall provide any documentation, forms and other information relating to its
status under FATCA reasonably requested by the Facility Agent or a Borrower sufficient for the Facility Agent and the Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Finance Party has complied with such
applicable reporting requirements. 

  

	13.4	Tax indemnity 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, the Obligors shall (within ten Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party
reasonably determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party. The Protected Party shall within five Business Days’ of request by that Borrower provide to that Borrower reasonable
written details explaining the loss, liability or cost and the calculation of the amount claimed by the Protected Party. 

  

	 	(b)	Paragraph (a) above shall not apply with respect to any Tax: 

  

	 	(i)	assessed on a Finance Party: 

  

	 	(A)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or



  
 128 









	 	(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, 


if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income or net profits received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be
received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or 
  

	 	(ii)	that relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party (other than in respect of any payments due to a Lender which is a special purpose vehicle that has issued notes and advanced all of the proceeds of such
notes to a member of the Borrower Group pursuant to an Advance under an Additional Facility (except where such FATCA Deduction arises from any non-compliance with any law, regulation or other obligation in
respect of FATCA by a holder of such notes). 

  

	 	(c)	A Protected Party making or intending to make a claim pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall promptly notify the Facility Agent in writing of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, including
details of the nature of the Tax due or paid by that Protected Party, following which the Facility Agent shall promptly provide such information to UPC Broadband. 


 

	 	(d)	A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 13.4 (Tax Indemnity), notify the Facility Agent. 


 

	13.5	Tax Credit 

  

	 	(a)	If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that: 

  

	 	(i)	a Tax Credit is attributable to that Tax Payment; and 

  

	 	(ii)	that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit, 

 the Finance Party
shall pay an amount to the Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been made by the
Obligor. 
  

	 	(b)	No provision of this Agreement shall: 

  

	 	(i)	interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its tax or any other affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit or oblige any Finance Party to claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment in respect of any
payment of Tax in priority to any other credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it, except that the Finance Party’s sole reason (acting in good faith) for not claiming or for deferring such credit, relief, remission or repayment
shall not be its obligation to make a payment under this Clause 13.5 (Tax Credit); or 

  

	 	(ii)	oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its Tax or other affairs or any computations in respect thereof. 


  
 129 









	13.6	U.S. Taxes 

 A US Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount pursuant to
Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up) in respect of United States Taxes (including, without limitation, federal, state, local or other income Taxes), branch profits or franchise Taxes with respect to a sum
payable by it pursuant to this Agreement to a Lender if on the date such Lender becomes a Party to this Agreement or has designated a new Facility Office either: 
  

	 	(a)	in the case of a Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), such Lender has not provided the Borrower with two accurate and complete original signed copies
of (i) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (relating to such Lender and claiming a complete exemption from withholding under an income tax treaty (or successor form) or (ii) U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form) certifying, in each case, to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding with respect to all amounts
payable pursuant to the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(b)	after the date such Lender becomes a Party to this Agreement, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification of such Lender made pursuant to Clause 13.6(a) above obsolete or
inaccurate, such Lender has not delivered to UPC Broadband two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN
(with respect to the benefit of any income tax treaty), as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States
withholding tax with respect to amounts payable pursuant to the Finance Documents; or 

  

	 	(c)	such Lender is subject to such Tax by reason of any connection between the jurisdiction imposing such Tax and the Lender or its Facility Office other than a connection arising solely from this Agreement or any
transaction contemplated hereby. 

  

	13.7	Value added tax 

  

	 	(a)	All consideration expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT and no Party shall exercise any potential option for waiving a VAT exemption.
Subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party in connection with a Finance Document, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the
consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT, unless the VAT charge is caused by the Finance Party’s option to waive a VAT exemption, and in either case concurrently against the issue of an appropriate invoice. 


  
 130 









	 	(b)	If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) in connection with a Finance Document, and any
Party other than the Recipient (the “Subject Party”) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify
the Recipient in respect of that consideration), (i) if the Supplier is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, the Subject Party must also pay to the Supplier and, (ii) if the Recipient is required to account to the
relevant tax authority for the VAT the Subject Party must pay to the Recipient, (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. Where paragraph (i) applies, the Recipient must promptly pay
to the Subject Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of the VAT chargeable on that supply. Where paragraph
(ii) applies, the Subject Party must only pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the amount of such VAT to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to a credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in
respect of that VAT. 

  

	 	(c)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Finance Party for the full amount of such costs and
expenses including such costs that represent VAT incurred by the Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax
authority in respect of the VAT. 

  

	 	(d)	Any reference in this Clause 13.7 (Value added tax) to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group including but not limited to any fiscal unities for VAT purposes, include
(where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the relevant legislation of any
jurisdiction having implemented Council Directive 2006/112/EC on the common system of value added tax). 

  

	 	(e)	If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must give the Finance Party details of its VAT registration
number and any other information as is reasonably requested in connection with the Finance Party’s reporting requirements for the supply and at such time that the Finance Party may reasonably request it. 


 

	 	(f)	Where a Borrower is required to make a payment under paragraph (b) above, such amount shall not become due until the relevant Borrower has received a formal invoice detailing the amount to be paid.



  
 131

	14.1	Unavailability of Screen Rate 

  

	 	(a)	Interpolated Screen Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR for the Interest Period of an Advance, the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate for a
period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Advance. 

  

	 	(b)	Shortened Interest Period: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR for: 

  

	 	(i)	the currency of an Advance; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Interest Period of an Advance and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate, 


the Interest Period of that Advance shall (if it is longer than the applicable Fallback Interest Period) be shortened to the applicable
Fallback Interest Period and the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR for that shortened Interest Period shall be determined pursuant to the definition of “LIBOR” or “EURIBOR” as applicable. 

 

	 	(c)	Shortened Interest Period and Historic Screen Rate: If the Interest Period of an Advance is, after giving effect to paragraph (b) above, either the applicable Fallback Interest Period or shorter than the
applicable Fallback Interest Period and, in either case, no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR or, if applicable EURIBOR for: 

  

	 	(i)	the currency of that Advance; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Interest Period of that Advance and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate, 


the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be the Historic Screen Rate for that Advance. 

 

	 	(d)	Shortened Interest Period and Interpolated Historic Screen Rate: If paragraph (c) above applies but no Historic Screen Rate is available for the Interest Period of that Advance, the applicable LIBOR or
EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Advance. 

  

	 	(e)	Reference Bank Rate: If paragraph (d) above applies but it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate, the Interest Period of that Advance shall, if it has been shortened pursuant to
paragraph (b) above, revert to its previous length and the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be the Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time for the currency of that Advance and for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that

	14.2	Calculation of Reference Bank Rate and Alternative Reference Bank Rate 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, if LIBOR or EURIBOR is to be determined on the basis of a Reference Bank Rate but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time the Reference Bank Rate shall be
calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks. 

  

	 	(b)	If at or about noon on the Quotation Date none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation, there shall be no Reference Bank Rate for the relevant Interest Period or Term.

Rate for the relevant Interest Period or Term. 

  

	14.3	Market disruption 

  

	 	(a)	If LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR is determined otherwise than on the basis of an Alternative Reference Bank Rate and before close of business in London on the Quotation Date for the relevant Interest Period or Term,

select would be in excess of LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR then the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be the Alternative Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time for the currency of the Advance and for a period equal in length to the Interest
Period of that Advance and if no Alternative Reference Bank Rate is available for the relevant currency or Interest Period or Term there shall be no LIBOR or EURIBOR for that Advance and Clause 14.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Advance
for the relevant Interest Period or Term. 


  
 133 









	 	(b)	If LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR is determined on the basis of an Alternative Reference Bank Rate and before close of business in London on the date falling one Business Day after the Quotation Date for the relevant
Interest Period of the Advance the Facility Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in an Advance exceed 40 per cent. of that Advance) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Advance from
whatever source it may reasonably select would be in excess of LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR then Clause 14.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Advance for the relevant Interest Period or Term. 


 

	14.4	Cost of funds 

  

	 	(a)	If this Clause 14.4 applies, the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of the relevant Advance for the relevant Interest Period or Term shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:


  

	 	(i)	the Margin; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event within one Business Day of the first day of that Interest Period (or, if earlier, on the date falling five Business Days before the
date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period), to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to the relevant Lender of funding its participation in that Advance from whatever source it may
reasonably select. 

  

	 	(b)	If this Clause 14.4 applies and the Facility Agent or UPC Broadband so requires, the Facility Agent and UPC Broadband shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a
substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. 

  

	 	(c)	Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall, with the prior consent of the affected Lenders and UPC Broadband, be binding on all Parties. 


 

	 	(d)	If this Clause 14.4 applies pursuant to Clause 14.3 (Market disruption): and 

  

	 	(i)	a Lender’s Funding Rate is less than LIBOR or, in relation to any Advance in Euro, EURIBOR; or 

  

	 	(ii)	a Lender does not supply a quotation by the time specified in paragraph (a)(ii) above, 

 the
cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Advance for that Interest Period or Term shall be deemed, for the purposes of paragraph (a) above, to be LIBOR or, in relation to an Advance in Euro, EURIBOR. 

 

	 	(e)	If this Clause 14.4 applies pursuant to Clause 14.1 (Unavailability of Screen Rate) but any Lender does not supply a quotation by the time specified in paragraph (a)(ii) above the rate of interest shall be
calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Lenders. 


  
 134 









	14.5	Notification to UPC Broadband 

 If Clause 14.4 (Cost of funds) applies or if LIBOR
or, if applicable, EURIBOR is to be determined on the basis of an Alternative Reference Bank Rate the Facility Agent shall, as soon as is practicable, notify UPC Broadband. 
  

	14.6	Revocation of currency 

 If before 9.30 a.m. on any Quotation Date, the Facility Agent
receives notice from a Lender that: 
  

	 	(a)	it is impracticable for the Lender to fund its participation in an Advance in US Dollars or an Additional Currency (as applicable) during that Interest Period in the ordinary course of business in the London or (in the
case of Euro) European interbank market; and/or 

  

	 	(b)	the use of US Dollars or an Additional Currency (as applicable) might contravene any law or regulation, 


the Facility Agent shall give notice to UPC Broadband and to the Lenders to that effect before 11.00 a.m. on that day. In this event: 

 

	 	(i)	UPC Broadband and the Lenders may agree that the drawdown will not be made; or 

  

	 	(ii)	in the absence of agreement that Lender’s participation in the Advance (or, if more than one Lender is similarly affected, those Lender’s participations in the Advance) shall be treated as a separate Advance
denominated in Euros during the relevant Interest Period. 

  

	15.	INCREASED COSTS 

  

	15.1	Increased Costs 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to Clause 15.3 (Exceptions) the Borrowers shall, within three Business Days of a demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent for the account of a Finance Party the amount of any Increased

	 	(i)	attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by an Obligor; 

  

	 	(ii)	compensated for by Clause 13.4 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated for under Clause 13.4 (Tax indemnity) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Clause 13.4(b)
(Tax indemnity) applied); 

  

	 	(iii)	attributable to the implementation or application of or compliance with the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards, a Revised Framework” published by the Basel Committee on

Finance Party or any of its affiliates); 

  

	 	(iv)	attributable to the gross negligence of, or wilful breach by, the relevant Finance Party or any of its Holding Companies of any law or regulation to which the imposition of such Increased Cost relates;


  

	 	(v)	suffered by a Finance Party and in respect of which that Finance Party intends to make a claim pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 15.2 (Increased costs claims), but which is not (and its claim under
paragraph (a) of Clause 15.2 (Increased Costs Claims) is not) notified by that Finance Party to the Facility Agent within 30 days of that Finance Party becoming aware that it had suffered the relevant Increased Cost; 


 

	 	(vi)	attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party; or 


  
 136 









	 	(vii)	attributable to any Bank Levy but only to the extent that such Bank Levy is no more onerous than in respect of: 

  

	 	(A)	a Bank Levy not enacted into law as at the 2016 First Amendment Effective Date, any draft of such proposed Bank Levy as at the 2016 First Amendment Effective Date; or 


 

	 	(B)	any other Bank Levy, as set out under existing law as at the 2016 First Amendment Effective Date; and 

  

	 	(viii)	attributable to the implementation or application of, or compliance with, Basel III or CRD IV or any law or regulation that implements or applies Basel III or CRD IV to the extent that a Finance Party knew about or
could reasonably be expected to have known about the relevant Increased Cost on or prior to the date on which it became a Finance Party.

“Basel III” means: (a) the agreements on capital requirements, a leverage ratio and liquidity standards contained
in “Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems”, “Basel III: International framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring” and “Guidance for national authorities

government, regulator, a Finance Party or any of its Affiliates). 
 “CRD IV” means: 

 

	 	(A)	Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms; and 


 

	 	(B)	Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and the prudential

	16.	ILLEGALITY AND MITIGATION 

  

	16.1	Illegality 

 If it is or will become unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for a Lender
to give effect to any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Facility Document or to fund or allow to remain outstanding all or part of its participation in any Advance or, in the case of an Ancillary Facility Lender,
any utilisation under any Ancillary Facility:

jurisdiction for an L/C Bank to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund or maintain its participation in any Documentary Credit (an “Affected Documentary Credit”): 

 

	 	(a)	that L/C Bank shall promptly notify the Facility Agent upon becoming aware of that event: 

  

	 	(b)	upon the Facility Agent notifying UPC Broadband, that L/C Bank shall not be obliged to issue any future Documentary Credit that would give rise to such unlawfulness; and 


  
 138

	16.3	Mitigation

“Statement”), UPC Broadband may provide the Facility Agent with a confirmation in writing that (i) the ratio set out in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) and/or any other ratio set out in this Agreement can be tested on a
substantially equivalent basis or (ii) that there would be no material effect on the operation of the ratio set out in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) and/or any other ratio set out in this Agreement, following the adoption of IFRS or GAAP

Period and any such reduction which will occur from a prepayment of a Facility made under Clause 10.3 (Voluntary prepayment) or Clause 10.5(a) (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) of this Agreement from the proceeds of such
disposal; and 

  

	 	(y)	in the event of a Committed Acquisition Designation, adding any net increase in Senior Net Debt of the Borrower Group or subtracting any net reduction in the Senior Net Debt of the Borrower Group that is expected to
occur as a result of the incurrence or repayment of Financial Indebtedness in connection with the relevant Committed Acquisition on a pro forma basis; and 

  

	 	(2)	Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group used in such calculations by: 

  

	 	(x)	subtracting the Annualised EBITDA attributable to persons or assets disposed of since the end of the Latest Ratio Period and the Annualised EBITDA attributable to the person or asset the subject of such disposal, in
each case for the Latest Ratio Period; and 


  
 164 









	 	(y)	in the event of a Committed Acquisition Designation, adding the Annualised EBITDA of the Target in respect of the relevant Committed Acquisition for the Latest Ratio Period on a pro forma basis, 


that financial ratio would not be breached; and. 
  

	 	(D)	in the event of a Committed Acquisition Designation, the requirement not to exceed the Remaining Percentage in relation to such disposal set out at the start of this paragraph (xlvi) must also be satisfied on the
earlier of (1) the date on which the relevant Committed Acquisition is completed and (2) the date falling 12 months after the date of such disposal, provided that the Remaining Percentage shall be recalculated on such date to test whether
the requirement set out above is satisfied. 

  

	 	(c)	The “Remaining Percentage” is: 

  

	 	(i)	the greater of (A) 17.5% and (B) the percentage of the Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group represented by the Annualised EBITDA of the French Group for the Latest Ratio Period;

as calculated in accordance with paragraph (d) below. 

Provided that:- 
  

	 	(x)	the percentage of the Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group represented by the Annualised EBITDA of the person or asset disposed of can never be more than the Remaining Percentage immediately prior to such disposal
(except where the Borrower has completed a Committed Acquisition Designation on or prior to the date of completion of a disposal, in which case paragraph (z) below applies); 


 

	 	(y)	the Remaining Percentage can never be more than 17.5%, except in respect of a disposal of the French Group; and 

  

	 	(z)	where the Borrower has completed a Committed Acquisition Designation any determination as to whether the related disposal complies with the Remaining Percentage requirement in paragraph (b)(xlvi) above shall be
determined by deducting B from A, where: 

  

	 	(A)	A equals the percentage of the Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group represented by the Annualised EBITDA of the person or asset disposed of for the latest Ratio Period; and 


  
 165 









	 	(B)	B equals the percentage of the Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group represented by the Annualised EBITDA of the Target which is the subject of that Committed Acquisition for the latest Ratio Period (based on
the then available historical financial information of the Target) (at the time of such disposal) and based on the actual financial information of the Target (at the time of completion of the relevant Committed Acquisition). 


 

	 	(d)	For the purposes of paragraphs (b)(b)(xlvi) and (c) above: 

 “Annualised
EBITDA” and “EBITDA” have the meaning given to them in Clause 20.1 (Financial definitions) except that when calculating EBITDA in relation to a person or asset that is being (or has been) acquired (including in
connection with a Committed Acquisition) or disposed of, any amounts will be calculated based on the most recently available financial information on a pro forma basis and using the methodology for calculating operating cash flow used in the
accounts most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by or on behalf of the Reporting Entity prior to the date of that acquisition or disposal, and, for the avoidance of doubt, any corporate costs or allocations paid or payable
during the relevant period by a member of the Borrower Group which is being disposed of to one of its Affiliates pursuant to any general services (or similar) arrangement shall be deducted from the EBITDA of the member of the Borrower Group being
disposed of. 
 “Committed Acquisition” means an Acquisition to be undertaken by a member of the Borrower Group which has
been notified by the Borrower to the Facility Agent in writing on or before the 5th (fifth) Business Day preceding completion of a disposal made under paragraph (b)(b)(xlvi) above as a
“Committed Acquisition” that the Borrower in good faith expects to constitute a Permitted Acquisition when consummated and in respect of which the Borrower or another member of the Borrower Group, as purchaser, has contractually
committed or agreed to complete that Acquisition within 12 months of the date of that disposal (the delivery of such a notice by the Borrower being a “Committed Acquisition Designation”). 

“French Group” means the group of companies of which UPC France Holding B.V. is the holding company as at the 2006 Amendment
Effective Date; 
 “Latest Ratio Period” means the most recent Ratio Period for which financial statements have been
delivered pursuant to Clause 19.2 (Financial information); 
 percentage value means: 

 

	 	(i)	in relation to a disposal, the percentage of the Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group for what was the Latest Ratio Period at the time of the disposal which is represented by the Annualised EBITDA of the person or
asset disposed of (the “EBITDA Percentage”), after deducting a percentage equal to the EBITDA Percentage multiplied by the Proportion Repaid; and 


 

	 	(ii)	 in relation to a Reinvestment, the percentage of the Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group for what was the
Latest Ratio Period 



  
 166 









	 	
at the time of the Reinvestment (but taking into account each disposal made by the Borrower Group after the last day of that Latest Ratio Period and prior to the date of the relevant
Reinvestment) which is represented by the Annualised EBITDA of the person or asset acquired multiplied by the Proportion Reinvested, 


Where: 
 the
“Proportion Reinvested” is that proportion of the purchase price for the person or asset acquired which is represented by the amount of the Net Proceeds of a previous disposal that were reinvested pursuant to the relevant
Reinvestment; 
 the “Proportion Repaid” is that proportion of the Net Proceeds of that disposal prepaid pursuant to Clause
10.5(a) (Mandatory prepayment of disposal proceeds) and/or repaid pursuant to Clause 10.3 (Voluntary prepayment);and 

“Reinvestment” means the reinvestment of all or any part of the Net Proceeds of a previous disposal made under paragraph
(b)(xlvi) above by the Borrower Group after the 2006 Amendment Effective Date, including in circumstances where all or any part of such Net Proceeds are distributed as a Permitted Payment and an equity subscription is subsequently made in, or a
Subordinated Shareholder Loan is subsequently made to, a member of the Borrower Group. 
  

	 	(e)	Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement or the relevant Security Document, none of UPC Broadband Holdco, any Permitted Affiliate Holdco or any Subsidiary of UPC Broadband Holdco or any Permitted
Affiliate Holdco which is permitted to issue, and has issued, Holdco Debt will sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its assets which are subject to a Security Document to which it is a party. 


 

	 	(f)	Any prepayment and cancellation or repayment made under paragraph (b)(xii) above will be applied against the Additional Facilities in such proportion as may be specified by UPC Broadband in the notice of prepayment and
cancellation or repayment and in the case of a prepayment and cancellation or repayment of Utilisations, against all outstanding Utilisations made under the relevant Additional Facilities pro rata (and, if applicable, against the Repayment
Instalments for the relevant Additional Facility or Additional Facilities in such order as may be specified by UPC Broadband). 

  

	 	(g)	In the event that a transaction (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of a Permitted Disposal and also meets the criteria of a Permitted Payment, UPC Broadband in its sole discretion, will be entitled to divide and
classify such transaction (or a portion thereof) as a disposal permitted under Clause 19.11(b) (Disposals) and/or a Permitted Payment under Clause 19.14(c) (Restricted Payments).

	 	(i)	on or prior to the Solvent Liquidation, an entity (the “Successor Entity”) acquires substantially all of the assets and assumes substantially all of the liabilities of the Predecessor Obligor (a

 190 









	 	(ii)	the Successor Entity is organised in the same jurisdiction as that in which the Predecessor Obligor is organised and is either: 

  

	 	(A)	an existing Obligor; or 

  

	 	(B)	a Subsidiary of UPC Broadband or a Subsidiary of any Permitted Affiliate Parent that is entitled to become (and subsequently does become) an Obligor in accordance with the provisions of Clause 29.8 (Additional
Obligors); 

  

	 	(iii)	the Successor Entity does not incur any additional material liabilities in connection with the Solvent Liquidation other than those which are to be transferred to it by the Predecessor Obligor but which did not arise
directly as a result of the Solvent Liquidation; 

  

	 	(iv)	to the extent previously provided in respect of the shares or the assets of the Predecessor Obligor, the Finance Parties are granted a first ranking security interest over the shares and/or assets of the Successor

Solvent Liquidation, accompanied by any report by the auditors or other advisers of the relevant Successor Entity on which such directors have relied for the purposes of giving such declaration;

	 	(C)	copies of the statutory declarations of the directors of the Predecessor Obligor (to the extent required by law) given in connection with Solvent Liquidation; 


 

	 	(D)	a copy of the executed transfer agreement relating to the Liquidation Transfer; and 

  

	 	(E)	 the legal opinion from the Successor Entity’s counsel confirming (1) the due capacity and incorporation
of each of the Successor Entity and the Predecessor Obligor, (2) the power and authority of the Successor Entity to enter into and perform 



  
 191 









	 	
its obligations under this Agreement and any other Finance Document to which it is a party and (3) that the transfer agreement giving effect to the Liquidation Transfer is legally binding
and enforceable in accordance with its terms. 

  

	 	(b)	The solvent liquidation or dissolution of any member of the Borrower Group (other than any Borrower, any Obligor that is a Material Subsidiary and UPC Broadband) shall be permitted provided that any payments or assets
distributed as a result of such solvent liquidation or dissolution are distributed to other members of the Borrower Group. 

  

	 	(c)	The solvent reorganisation of any member of the Borrower Group (other than any Borrower and UPC Broadband) shall be permitted provided that any payments or assets distributed as a result of such solvent reorganisation
are distributed to other members of the Borrower Group. 

  

	19.31	Limited Condition Transaction 

  

	 	(a)	In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of
Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of UPC Broadband, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default or Event of Default, as applicable, exists on
the date the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, where UPC Broadband has exercised its option under the first sentence of this
paragraph (a) and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the date of such definitive agreement for a Limited Condition Transaction is entered into prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default or
Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted under this Agreement. 


 

	 	(b)	 In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction for purposes of
determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including the ratio of Senior Net Debt to Annualised EBITDA or Total Net Debt to Annualised EBITDA, or testing baskets set
forth in this Agreement including baskets measured as a percentage or multiple, as applicable, of Total Assets or Annualised EBITDA, in each case, at the option of UPC Broadband (UPC Broadband’s election to exercise such option in connection
with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether such action is permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed to be the date of the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive
documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (the “LCT Test Date”) provided that UPC Broadband shall be entitled to subsequently elect, in its sole discretion, the date of consummation of such Limited
Condition Transaction instead of the LCT Test Date as the applicable date of determination and if, after giving pro forma effect to the 



  
 192 









	 	
Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Financial Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof), as are
appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in this Agreement, UPC Broadband, a Permitted Affiliate Parent or any member of the Borrower Group could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance
with the relevant ratio, test or basket, such ratio, test or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. 

  

	 	(c)	If UPC Broadband has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or
basket, including due to fluctuations in Annualised EBITDA or Total Assets, of UPC Broadband, a Permitted Affiliate Parent and any member of the Borrower Group or the person or assets subject to the Limited Condition Transaction (as if each
reference to UPC Broadband or a member of the Borrower Group in such definitions was to such person or assets) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios, tests or basket amounts will not be deemed to have
been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If UPC Broadband has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability under this Agreement on or
following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of
such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Financial
Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

	 	(ii)	if it had been added to EBITDA for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach. 

  

	 	(b)	A cure under this Clause 20.4 will not be effective unless the required amount of additional equity or the proceeds of any Subordinated Shareholder Loans are received by one or more members of the Borrower Group within
15 Business Days of delivery of the financial statements delivered under Clause 19.2 (Financial information) which show that Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) has been breached. 


 

	 	(c)	No cure may be made under this Clause 20.4: 

  

	 	(i)	in respect of more than five Ratio Periods during the life of the Additional Facilities; or 

  

	 	(ii)	in respect of consecutive Ratio Periods. 

  

	 	(d)	UPC Broadband shall be under no obligation to apply any equity injected or the proceeds of any Subordinated Shareholder Loans into the Borrower Group under paragraph (a) above in prepayment of the Facilities or for
any other specific purpose and to the extent not applied such amount will be deemed to be deducted from Senior Net Debt or added to EBITDA for the purposes of Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) (as applicable) at the sole discretion of UPC
Broadband. 


  
 198 









	 	(e)	Where a cure is exercised under this Clause 20.4 in respect of a breach of Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) and the next Ratio Period ends approximately three months after the Ratio Period in respect of which the
cure was made, EBITDA in respect of that next Ratio Period will be deemed, for the purposes of Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio), to be increased by the amount determined under Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) above in respect of the relevant
cure. This deemed increase will not be treated as a separate cure. 

  

	 	(f)	For the purpose of ascertaining compliance with Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio), the ratio set out in Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio), will be tested or retested, as applicable, giving effect to the adjustment
referred to in paragraph (e) above. If, after giving effect to the adjustment, the requirements of Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) are met, then the requirements under Clause 20.2 (Financial Ratio) shall be deemed to have been
satisfied as at the relevant original date of determination.

	 	(a)	Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group originally denominated in any currency other than Euro that has been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into Euro,

	 	(b)	All the terms used above are to be calculated in accordance with the Relevant Accounting Principles. 

  

	 	(c)	Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, Hedged Debt (as defined below) will be taken into account at its Euro equivalent calculated using the same weighted average exchange rates for the relevant Ratio Period
used in the profit and loss statements of the relevant accounts of the Borrower Group for calculating the Euro equivalent of EBITDA denominated in the same currency as the currency in which that Hedged Debt is denominated or into which it has been
swapped, as described below. 

  

	 	“Hedged	Debt” means: 

  

	 	(a)	Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group originally denominated in any currency other than Euro in which any member of the Borrower Group earns EBITDA (a “functional currency”) and that has not been
swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into Euro; and 

  

	 	(b)	Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group that has been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into a functional currency.

its possession or that of any of its related entities before, on or after the Signing Date; or

 Each Lender shall indemnify each Agent, within three Business Days of
demand, against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the relevant Agent (otherwise than by reason of the relevant Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct) in acting as Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the relevant Agent has
been reimbursed 

  
 211 








 
by an Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document). Such indemnification shall be pro rata to its Commitments (and for the purposes of calculating this proportion, the amount of the Total
Additional Facility Commitments and each Lender’s Additional Facility Commitments shall be converted to Euros at the Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange on the date of the relevant calculation). 

 

	22.13	Compliance 

  

	 	(a)	Each Agent may refrain from doing anything which might, in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may do anything which, in its

	 	(b)	Without limiting paragraph (a) above, neither Agent need disclose any information relating to any Obligor or any of its related entities if the disclosure might, in the opinion of the relevant Agent, constitute a
breach of any law or regulation or any duty of secrecy or confidentiality or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person. 

  

	22.14	Resignation of Agents 

  

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding its irrevocable appointment (but subject to paragraphs (f), (g) and (h) below), each Agent may resign by giving notice to the Lenders and UPC Broadband, in which case the relevant Agent may,
following consultation with and with the consent of UPC Broadband (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) forthwith appoint one of its Affiliates as successor Agent or, failing that, the Majority Lenders may with the consent of UPC Broadband
(not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint a reputable and experienced bank as successor Agent. The resignation of the Security Agent is subject to compliance with Clause 21.1 (Resignation of the Security Agent) of the Intercreditor
Agreement (or any equivalent terms of the Intercreditor Agreement from time to time). 

  

	 	(b)	If the appointment of a successor Agent is to be made by the Majority Lenders but they have not, within 30 days after notice of resignation, appointed a successor Agent which accepts the appointment, the retiring Agent
may, following consultation with and with the consent of UPC Broadband (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor Agent. 

  

	 	(c)	The resignation of the retiring Agent and the appointment of any successor Agent will both become effective only upon the successor Agent notifying all the Parties that it accepts the appointment. On giving the
notification and receiving such approval, the successor Agent will succeed to the position of the retiring Facility Agent and the term “Facility Agent” or “Security Agent” (as the case may be) will mean the
successor Facility Agent or Security Agent, respectively. 

  

	 	(d)	The retiring Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its
functions as the Agent under this Agreement.

	 	(e)	Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause 22 shall continue to benefit the retiring Agent in respect of any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with the Finance Documents while it was the
relevant Agent and, subject to paragraph (d) above, it shall have no further obligation under any Finance Document. 

  

	 	(f)	The Majority Lenders may by notice to an Agent require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above. In this event, the relevant Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above but it shall
not be entitled to appoint one of its Affiliates as successor Agent. 

  

	 	(g)	Provided no Default is continuing and following a period of consultation with the relevant Agent of not less than 14 days, UPC Broadband may by notice to that Agent require it to resign in accordance with paragraph
(a) above. In this event, the relevant Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above but it shall not be entitled to appoint one of its Affiliates as successor Agent and UPC Broadband shall appoint a successor Facility Agent
acting through an office in the United Kingdom or the Netherlands (without any Lender’s consent). UPC Broadband may exercise such right to replace the Facility Agent twice during the life of the Facilities. 


 

	 	(h)	If requested by UPC Broadband by written notice to the Facility Agent, the Facility Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA
Application Date relating to any payment to the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents the Facility Agent notifies UPC Broadband that the Facility Agent will cease to be a FATCA Exempt Party on or after the FATCA Application Date and (in each
case) UPC Broadband reasonably believes that a Party would be required to make a deduction on account of FATCA that would not be required if the Facility Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party. 


 

	22.15	Lenders 

 Each Agent may treat each Lender as a Lender, entitled to payments under this
Agreement and as acting through its Facility Office(s) until it has received notice from the Lender to the contrary by not less than five Business Days prior to the relevant payment. 

 

	22.16	Separate divisions 

 In acting as an Agent, the agency division of each of the Agents
shall be treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information acquired at any time by either Agent otherwise than in the capacity of Agent through its agency division (whether as financial adviser to any member of
the Borrower Group or otherwise) may be treated as confidential by the relevant Agent and shall not be deemed to be information possessed by the relevant Agent in its capacity as such. Each Finance Party acknowledges that each Agent may, now or in
the future, be in possession of, or provided with, information relating to the Obligors which has not or 

  
 213 








 
will not be provided to the other Finance Parties. Each Finance Party agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Agent will be under any obligation to provide, or be
under any liability for failure to provide, any such information to the other Finance Parties. 
  

	22.17	Role of Reference Banks and Alternative Reference Banks 

  

	 	(a)	No Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank is under any obligation to provide a quotation or any other information to the Facility Agent. 


 

	 	(b)	No Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank will be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, or for any Reference Bank Quotation, unless directly caused by its gross
negligence or wilful misconduct. 

  

	 	(c)	No Party (other than the relevant Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of any Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank in respect of any claim
it might have against that Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document, or to any Reference Bank Quotation, and any officer,
employee or agent of each Base Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank may rely on this Clause 22.17 subject to Clause 1.2(e) (Construction) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act. 


 

	22.18	Third party Reference Banks and Alternative Reference Banks 

 A Reference Bank or
Alternative Reference Bank which is not a Party may rely on Clause 22.17 (Role of Reference Banks and Alternative Reference Banks) and Clause 31 (Confidentiality of Funding Rates and Reference Bank Quotations) subject to Clause
1.2(e) (Construction) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act. 
  

	23.	FEES 

  

	23.1	Commitment fee 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, if specified in the relevant Additional Facility Accession Agreement, UPC Broadband shall pay to the Facility Agent for distribution to each Lender pro rata to the proportion

Accession Agreement on any undrawn uncancelled amount of Total Additional Facility Commitments. 

  

	 	(b)	Commitment fee is calculated and accrues on a daily basis on and from the date of the relevant Additional Facility Accession Agreement and payable quarterly in arrear from the date of the relevant Additional Facility
Accession Agreement and on the relevant Utilisation Date. Accrued commitment fee is also payable to the Facility Agent for the relevant Lender(s) on the cancelled amount of its (their) Additional Facility Commitments at the time the cancellation

for their own account an agency fee in the amounts and on the dates agreed in the relevant Fee Letter. 
  

	23.3	VAT 

 Any fee referred to in this Clause 23 (Fees) is exclusive of any applicable
value added tax. If any value added tax is so chargeable and is invoiced, it shall be paid by UPC Broadband at the same time as it pays the relevant fee. Where appropriate, the relevant Finance Party will supply a VAT invoice in respect of such
fees. 
  

	23.4	Documentary Credit Fee 

 Each Borrower shall, in respect of each Documentary Credit
issued on its behalf pay (or procure the payment of) to the Facility Agent for the account of each L/C Lender (for distribution in proportion to each L/C Lender’s L/C Proportion of such Documentary Credit) a documentary credit fee in the
currency in which the relevant Documentary Credit is denominated at a rate equal to the Margin for the applicable Revolving Facility applied on the Outstanding L/C Amount in relation to such Documentary Credit (less any amount which has been repaid

Documentary Credit.

 Each relevant Borrower shall pay (or procure the payment of) to any other
L/C Bank a fronting fee in respect of each Documentary Credit requested by it and issued by that L/C Bank, in the amount and at the times agreed in any letter entered into between such L/C Bank and such Borrower.

	26.1	Currency indemnity 

  

	 	(a)	If any sum due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (a “Sum”), or any order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the “First

	 	(i)	making or filing a claim or proof against that Obligor; 

  

	 	(ii)	obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings,

Period in which they accrue. 


  
 217 









	27.	EVIDENCE AND CALCULATIONS 

  

	27.1	Accounts 

 Accounts maintained by a Finance Party in connection with this Agreement are
prima facie evidence of the matters to which they relate. 
  

	27.2	Certificates and determinations 

 Any certification or determination by a Finance Party
of a rate or amount payable under this Agreement or otherwise expressed to be determined by a Finance Party is, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of the matters to which it relates. 

 

	27.3	Calculations 

 The interest and the fees payable under Clause 23.1 (Commitment
fee) accrue from day to day and are calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 360 days or, where practice in the London inter-bank market, in the case of non-Euro amounts,
or the European interbank market, in the case of Euro amounts, otherwise dictates, 365 days.
  

	27.4	Certificate of L/C Bank 

 A certificate of an L/C Bank as to the amount paid out or at
any time due in respect of a Documentary Credit shall, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the payment of such amounts or (as the case may be) of the amounts outstanding in any legal action or proceedings arising in connection
therewith. 
  

	28.	AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS 

  

	28.1	Required consents 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to Clause 28.2 (Exceptions), any term of the Finance Documents may be amended or waived only with the written consent of the Majority Lenders and UPC Broadband and any such amendment or waiver will be
binding on all Parties. 

  

	 	(b)	The Facility Agent may effect, on behalf of any Finance Party, any amendment or waiver permitted by this Clause 28 (Amendments and Waivers). 


 

	28.2	Exceptions

Lender affected thereby and without the consent of any other Lender: 

  

	 	(i)	the definition of “Majority Lenders” in Clause 1.1 (Definitions); 


  
 218 









	 	(ii)	an extension to the date of payment of any amount of principal, interest or commitment fees under this Agreement or the Security Documents or the extension of an Additional Facility Availability Period;

	 	(c)	The Facility Agent may agree with UPC Broadband any amendment to or the modification of the provisions of any of the Finance Documents or any schedule thereto, which is necessary to correct a manifest error.


  

	 	(d)	If authorised by the Majority Lenders, the Security Agent may, subject to paragraph (a) above, grant any waiver or consent in relation to, or variation of the material provisions of, any Security Document.


  

	 	(e)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Clause 28 (Amendments and Waivers), the Facility Agent may at any time without the consent or sanction of the Lenders, concur with UPC Broadband in making any
modifications to any Finance Document, which in the opinion of the Facility Agent would be proper to make provided that the Facility Agent is of the opinion that such modification: 


 

	 	(i)	would not be materially prejudicial to the position of any Lender and in the opinion of the Facility Agent such modification is of a formal, minor or technical nature or is to correct a manifest error;


  

	 	(ii)	relates to the increase in the principal amount of a Commitment of a Lender in relation to any Facility and such increased Commitment has been requested by UPC Broadband to fund any original issue discount required to
be paid to that Lender in relation to that Facility under any Finance Document; or 

  

	 	(iii)	is of a minor, operational or technical nature. 


  
 219 








 Any modification made in accordance with this paragraph (e) shall be made on such terms as
the Facility Agent may determine, shall be binding upon the Lenders, and shall be notified by UPC Broadband to the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. 
  

	 	(f)	A waiver of issuance or the release of any Guarantor from any of its obligations under Clause 17 (Guarantee) or a release of any Security under the Security Documents, in each case, other than in accordance with
the terms of any Finance Document shall require the prior written consent of affected Lenders whose Available Commitments plus Outstandings amount in aggregate to more than 90 per cent. of the Available Facilities plus aggregate Outstandings.


  

	28.3	Class Exception 

 Any amendment or waiver which: 

 

	 	(a)	relates only to the rights or obligations applicable to a particular Utilisation or Facility; and 

  

	 	(a)	does not materially and adversely affect the rights or interests of Lenders in respect of any other Utilisation or Facility, 


may be made in accordance with this Clause 28 (Amendments and Waivers) but as if references in this Clause 28 (Amendments and
Waivers) to the specified proportion of Lenders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each affected Lender) whose consent would, but for this Clause 28.3 (Class Exception), be required for that amendment or waiver were to that
proportion of the Lenders participating in that particular Utilisation or Facility. 
  

	28.4	Release of Guarantees and Security 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, at the time of completion of any disposal by UPC Broadband Holdco, any Permitted Affiliate Holdco, any Subsidiary of UPC Broadband Holdco or any Permitted Affiliate Holdco which is
permitted to issue, and has issued, Holdco Debt, any Obligor or any other provider of Security of any shares, assets or revenues the Security Agent shall (and it is hereby authorised by the other relevant Finance Parties to) at the request of and
cost of the relevant Obligor, execute such documents as may be required to: 

  

	 	(i)	release those shares, assets or revenues from Security constituted by any relevant Security Document or certify that any floating charge constituted by any relevant Security Documents over such assets, revenues or
rights has not crystallised; and 

  

	 	(ii)	release any person which as a result of that disposal, ceases to be the UPC Broadband Holdco, any Permitted Affiliate Holdco, any Subsidiary of UPC Broadband Holdco or any Permitted Affiliate Holdco which is permitted
to issue, and has issued, Holdco Debt or any Obligor, from any guarantee, indemnity or Security Document to which it is a party and its other obligations under any other Finance Document. 


  
 220 









	 	(b)	The Security Agent shall only be required under paragraph (a) above to grant the release of any Security or to deliver a certificate of non-crystallisation on account of a
disposal as described in that paragraph if: 

  

	 	(i)	the disposal is permitted under Clause 19.11 (Disposals) or the consent of the Majority Lenders has been obtained; and 

  

	 	(ii)	to the extent that the disposal is to be in exchange for replacement assets the Security Agent has either received (or is satisfied, acting reasonably, that it will receive immediately following the disposal) one or
more duly executed Security Documents granting Security over those replacement assets or is satisfied, acting reasonably, that the replacement assets will be subject to Security pursuant to any existing Security Documents. 


 

	 	(c)	If at any time the Obligors at the relevant time represent a percentage which is greater than that required to satisfy the 80% Security Test and UPC Broadband provides a certificate to the Facility Agent certifying that
upon the release of one or more specified Obligors from its obligations under this Agreement the 80% Security Test would continue to be satisfied, the Security Agent shall (and it is hereby authorised by the other relevant Finance Parties to) at the
request and cost of UPC Broadband, execute such documents as may be required to release such specified Obligors from any guarantees, indemnities and/or Security Documents to which it is a party and to release it from its other obligations under any
Finance Document. Any Obligor, whose assets are to be released by this paragraph (c) or any other provision of this Agreement or the Finance Documents and who as a result will not have granted security over its assets in accordance with the 80%
Security Test for the benefit of the Finance Parties, shall, for purposes of the determination of the 80% Security Test, not be treated as an Obligor for the calculation in the preceding sentence and on a going forward basis. The release provisions
of this paragraph (c) shall not permit any release of any guarantees or Security in favour of the Finance Parties, in each case, granted by UPC Broadband Holdco, UPC Broadband and any Borrower (other than UPC Broadband) for as long as such
entity is a Borrower. 

  

	 	(d)	The Security Agent shall (and it is hereby authorised by the other Finance Parties to) at the cost of the relevant Obligor, execute such documents as may be required or desirable to effect any release (i) permitted
under the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) to which a prior written consent of the relevant Lenders has been granted in accordance with 28.2(f) (Exceptions) and (iii) required to permit the granting of any Security Interest permitted
under Clause 19.8 (Negative pledge). 

  

	 	(e)	 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, UPC Broadband may require the Security Agent to, and the
Security Agent shall (and it is hereby authorised by the other relevant Finance Parties to) at the cost of the relevant 



  
 221 









	 	
Obligor, execute such documents as may be required or desirable to effect the release of the Security granted over any asset of an Obligor pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a
party to enable the relevant Obligor to grant in connection with that asset any encumbrance permitted under Clause 19.8 (Negative pledge). If, immediately prior to such release the relevant Obligor was treated as an Obligor for the
purpose of the 80% Security Test, the relevant Obligor shall continue to be treated as an Obligor for those purposes notwithstanding any such release. 

  

	28.5	Calculation of Consent 

 Where a request for a waiver of, or an amendment to, any
provision of any Finance Document has been sent by the Facility Agent to the Lenders at the request of an Obligor: 
  

	 	(a)	each Lender that does not respond to such request for waiver or amendment within 10 Business Days after receipt by it of such request (or within such other period as the Facility Agent and UPC Broadband shall specify),
shall be excluded from the calculation in determining whether the requisite level of consent to such waiver or amendment was granted; and 

  

	 	(b)	the Facility Agent, in determining whether sufficient Lenders have consented to that amendment or waiver, shall not take into account any Commitments or Advances under any relevant Facility in relation to which a
cancellation or prepayment notice (as applicable) has been served in accordance with Clause 10.2 (Voluntary Cancellation) or Clause 10.3 (Voluntary Prepayment) provided that to the extent that any cancellation or prepayment is not made
on the date specified in a relevant cancellation or prepayment notice then the requirement to take into account any such Commitments or Advances under any relevant Facility shall be reinstated with retroactive effect from the date of delivery of
such cancellation or prepayment notice. 

  

	28.6	Change of Currency 

  

	 	(a)	If more than one currency or currency unit are at the same time recognised by the central bank of any country as the lawful currency of that country, then: 


 

	 	(i)	any reference in the Finance Documents to, and any obligations arising under the Finance Documents in, the currency of that country shall be translated into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country
designated by the Facility Agent; and 

  

	 	(ii)	any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official conversion rate recognised by the central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or
down by the Facility Agent acting reasonably. 

  

	 	(b)	If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will be amended to the extent the Facility Agent specifies to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Banks in the same position, so
far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in currency had occurred. 


  
 222 









	28.7	Waivers and remedies cumulative 

 The rights of each Party under the Finance Documents:

  

	 	(a)	may be exercised as often as necessary, subject to the terms of the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(b)	are cumulative and not exclusive of its rights under the general law; and 

  

	 	(c)	may be waived only in writing and specifically. 

 Delay in the exercise or non-exercise of any such right is not a waiver of that right. 
  

	28.8	Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders 

  

	 	(a)	For so long as a Defaulting Lender has any Available Commitments, in determining whether the requisite level of consent has been obtained for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the relevant Finance
Documents, that Defaulting Lender’s Commitments will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments. 

  

	 	(b)	For the purposes of this Clause 28.8 (Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders), the Facility Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders: 


 

	 	(i)	any Lender which has notified the Facility Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” has occurred, 


unless it has received notice to the contrary from the Lender concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the
Facility Agent) or the Facility Agent is otherwise aware that the Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender. 
  

	28.9	Replacement of Lenders 

  

	 	(a)	If at any time: 

  

	 	(i)	any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender; or 

  

	 	(ii)	any Lender becomes a Non-Funding Lender, 

 then UPC
Broadband may, on not less than three Business Days prior notice to the Facility Agent and that Lender, (A) replace that Lender by requiring it to (and that Lender shall) transfer all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a
Lender or other person selected by UPC Broadband for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s share in the outstanding Advances and all accrued interest and fees and other amounts payable to it under this
Agreement or (B) prepay that Lender all but 

  
 223 








 
not part of its share in its outstanding Advances and all accrued interest and fees and other amounts payable to it under this Agreement from cash flow, Subordinated Shareholder Loans or New
Equity received by the Borrower Group. Any notice delivered under this paragraph (a) shall be accompanied by a Novation Certificate or Transfer Agreement complying with Clause 29.4 (Transfers by Lenders), which Novation Certificate or
Transfer Agreement shall be immediately executed by the relevant Non-Consenting Lender or, as the case may be, Non-Funding Lender and returned to UPC Broadband. If a
Lender does not execute and/or return a Novation Certificate or Transfer Agreement as required by this paragraph (a) within two Business Days of delivery by UPC Broadband, the Facility Agent shall execute (and is hereby irrevocably authorised
by the relevant Lender to do so) that Novation Certificate or Transfer Agreement on behalf of such Lender. 
  

	 	(b)	UPC Broadband shall have no right to replace the Facility Agent or the Security Agent and none of the foregoing nor shall any Lender have any obligation to UPC Broadband to find a replacement Lender or other such
entity. UPC Broadband may only exercise its replacement or prepayment rights in respect of any relevant Lender within 90 days of becoming entitled to do so on each occasion such Lender is a Non-Consenting
Lender or a Non-Funding Lender. 

  

	 	(c)	In no event shall the Lender being replaced be required to pay or surrender to such replacement Lender or other entity any of the fees received by such Lender being replaced pursuant to this Agreement.


  

	29.	CHANGES TO THE PARTIES 

  

	29.1	Successors and Assignees 

 This Agreement shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit
of each party to this Agreement and its or any subsequent successors, permitted assignees and transferees. 
  

	29.2	Transfers by Obligors 

  

	 	(a)	No Obligor may assign, transfer, novate or dispose of any of, or any interest in, its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement, except: 


 

	 	(i)	pursuant to a merger in accordance with Clause 19.12(b) (Acquisitions and mergers); and 

  

	 	(ii)	that UPC Broadband Holdco (“Existing UPC Broadband Holdco”) may at any time assign, transfer, novate or dispose of all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents
to which it is a party to another person which is the immediate Holding Company of UPC Broadband (“New UPC Broadband Holdco”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such other Finance Document, provided that
any transfer or novation of obligations by Existing UPC Broadband Holdco will not be effective until New UPC Broadband Holdco has become an Additional Guarantor in accordance with Clause 29.8 (Additional Obligors) and has delivered or
delivers the documents specified in Clause 29.8(a)(v) (Additional Obligors). 


  
 224 









	 	(b)	At the time the foregoing conditions for the transfer or novation of Existing UPC Broadband Holdco’s obligations shall have been satisfied (or waived, as the case may be) and such transfer or novation has taken
effect: 

  

	 	(i)	Existing UPC Broadband Holdco will be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents, without prejudice to any such obligations which may have accrued and shall not have been
discharged prior to such time; and 

  

	 	(ii)	Existing UPC Broadband Holdco will cease to be an Original Guarantor. 

  

	29.3	Transfers by Lenders 

  

	 	(a)	A Lender (the “Existing Lender”) may at any time after the day falling five Business Days after the Signing Date assign, transfer or novate any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement and
the other Finance Documents to another person (the “New Lender”), provided that in the case of a partial assignment, transfer or novation of rights and/or obligations, such assignment, transfer or novation shall be in a minimum
amount (in relation to an Additional Facility Commitment denominated in Euros) of €1,000,000 or (in relation to an Additional Facility Commitment denominated in US Dollars) of US$1,000,000 or, in each case, such lower amount as the Existing
Lender may agree with UPC Broadband (save that in the case of a partial assignment, transfer or novation by a Lender of its rights and/or obligations under an Additional Facility to an Affiliate or Related Fund of that Lender, such assignment,
transfer or novation shall be in a minimum amount (in relation to an Additional Facility Commitment denominated in Euros) of €500,000 or (in relation to an Additional Facility Commitment denominated in US Dollars) of US$500,000 or, in each
case, such lower amount as that Lender may agree with UPC Broadband). 

  

	 	(b)	The prior consent of UPC Broadband is required for any such assignment, transfer or novation (unless to an Affiliate or to a Lender, but without prejudice to paragraph (a) above), provided that: 


 

	 	(i)	UPC Broadband’s consent must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; 

  

	 	(ii)	the prior consent of UPC Broadband is not required when (A) the assignment, novation or transfer of a Lender’s rights and/or obligations is to an Affiliate or Related Fund of that Lender or (B) an Event
of Default is continuing; 

  

	 	(iii)	nothing in this Clause 29.3 restricts the ability of any Lender to enter into any sub participation or other arrangement with any third party relating to the Finance Documents which does not transfer to that third party
any obligation and/or legal or equitable interest in any of the rights arising under this Agreement. 


  
 225 









	 	(c)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Lender shall be entitled to assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or obligations under the Finance Documents in relation to any Revolving Facility
without the prior written consent of UPC Broadband, provided that no such consent shall be required in the case of any assignment or transfer: 

  

	 	(i)	by a Lender to another Lender under any Revolving Facility and/or to its Affiliate (or in the case of any Lender which constitutes a fund advised and/or managed by a common entity or an Affiliate thereof, to any other
fund managed by such common entity or Affiliate); 

  

	 	(ii)	to a person that is a lender under any revolving credit facility made available to any Affiliate of UPC Broadband; or 

  

	 	(iii)	to any New Lender at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing. 

  

	 	(d)	A transfer of obligations will be effective only if the obligations are novated in accordance with Clause 29.4 (Procedure for novations). 


 

	 	(e)	On each occasion an Existing Lender assigns, transfers or novates any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (other than to an Affiliate or Related Fund of that Existing Lender), the New Lender shall, on
the date the assignment, transfer and/or novation takes effect, pay to the Facility Agent for its own account a fee of €1,500. 

  

	 	(f)	An Existing Lender is not responsible to a New Lender for: 

  

	 	(i)	the execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Finance Document or any other document; 

  

	 	(ii)	the collectability of amounts payable under any Finance Document; or 

  

	 	(iii)	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in connection with any Finance Document. 

  

	 	(g)	Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that: 

  

	 	(i)	it has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied
exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and 

  

	 	(ii)	it will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under this Agreement or any Additional Facility
Commitment is in force, 


  
 226 









	 	(h)	Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to: 

  

	 	(i)	accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and/or obligations assigned, transferred or novated under this Clause 29.3; or 


 

	 	(ii)	support any losses incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise. 


 

	 	(i)	Any reference in this Agreement to a Lender includes a New Lender (to the extent rights have been assigned, transferred or novated to that New Lender and to the extent that obligations have been assumed by the New
Lender) but excludes a Lender if no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement and its Additional Facility Commitment has been cancelled or reduced to nil. 


 

	 	(j)	If any assignment, transfer or novation results, or will result by reason of circumstances existing at the time of the assignment, transfer or novation, in additional amounts becoming due under Clause 13 (Tax Gross-up and Indemnities) or amounts becoming due under Clause 15 (Increased Costs), the New Lender shall be entitled to receive such additional amounts only to the extent that the Existing Lender would
have been so entitled had there been no such assignment, transfer or novation. 

  

	 	(k)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the consent of each L/C Bank under a Revolving Facility shall be required (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) for any assignment or transfer
of any Lender’s rights and/or obligations under that Revolving Facility provided that in relation to any assignment or transfer required by UPC Broadband under Clause 10.7 (Right of prepayment and cancellation in relation to a single
Lender), an L/C Bank may not withhold such consent unless, acting reasonably, the reason for so doing relates to the creditworthiness of the proposed New Lender. 


 

	29.4	Procedure for novations 

  

	 	(a)	A novation is effected if: 

  

	 	(i)	the Existing Lender and the New Lender deliver to the Facility Agent a duly completed certificate (a “Novation Certificate”), substantially in the form of Part 1 of Schedule 4 (Novation
Certificate); and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Facility Agent executes it (which the Facility Agent shall promptly do). 

  

	 	(b)	Each Finance Party (other than the Existing Lender and the New Lender) irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to execute any duly completed Novation Certificate on its behalf if that Novation Certificate effects a
novation permitted by Clause 29.3 (Transfers by Lenders). 


  
 227 









	 	(c)	To the extent that they are expressed to be the subject of the novation in the Novation Certificate and subject to paragraph (e) below: 


 

	 	(i)	the Existing Lender and the other Parties (the “existing Parties”) will be released from their obligations to each other (the “discharged obligations”); 


 

	 	(ii)	the New Lender and the existing Parties will assume obligations towards each other which differ from the discharged obligations only insofar as they are owed to or assumed by the New Lender instead of the Existing
Lender; 

  

	 	(iii)	the rights of the Existing Lender against the existing Parties and vice versa (the “discharged rights”) will be cancelled; 


 

	 	(iv)	the New Lender and the existing Parties will acquire rights against each other which differ from the discharged rights only insofar as they are exercisable by or against the New Lender instead of the Existing Lender;
and 

  

	 	(v)	the New Lender shall become, by the execution by the Facility Agent of such Novation Certificate, bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement as if it were an original party thereto as a Senior Beneficiary and
shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations towards the other parties to the Intercreditor Agreement as would have been acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an original party to the Intercreditor Agreement as a Senior
Beneficiary, 

 all on the later of (i) five Business Days after receipt of a Novation Certificate executed by the
Existing Lender and the New Lender; (ii) the date of execution of such Novation Certificate by the Facility Agent or; (iii) the date specified in the Novation Certificate. 

 

	 	(d)	If the effective date of a novation is after the date a Request is received by the Facility Agent but before the date the requested Advance is disbursed to the relevant Borrower, the Existing Lender shall be obliged to
participate in that Advance in respect of its discharged obligations notwithstanding that novation, and the New Lender shall reimburse the Existing Lender for its participation in that Advance and all interest and fees thereon up to the date of
reimbursement (in each case to the extent attributable to the discharged obligations) within three Business Days of the Utilisation Date of that Advance. 

  

	 	(e)	If an Existing Lender effects a Mid-Interest Period Transfer: 

  

	 	(i)	the Facility Agent has an obligation to make interest accruing on and prior to the date on which the Mid-Interest Period Transfer took effect (the “Pre Transfer Accrued
Interest”) available to the Existing Lender in accordance with Clause 12.3 (Distribution). Once such accrued interest has been made available to the Existing Lender in accordance with Clause 12.3 (Distribution), the Facility
Agent will be released from all obligations towards the Existing Lender; 


  
 228 









	 	(ii)	the Facility Agent will have no obligation to pay Pre Transfer Accrued Interest to the New Lender; 

  

	 	(iii)	such Existing Lender will continue to have the right to receive Pre Transfer Accrued Interest. Once such Pre-Transfer Accrued Interest has been made available to such Existing
Lender in accordance with Clause 12.3 (Distribution), all rights of such Existing Lender against the Facility Agent will be cancelled; and 

  

	 	(iv)	the New Lender will have no right to receive Pre Transfer Accrued Interest from the Facility Agent. 

  

	29.5	Procedure for assignments 

  

	 	(a)	An assignment and assumption of rights and obligations will be effective only if the rights and obligations are assigned and assumed in accordance with this Clause 29.5 (Procedure for assignments).


  

	 	(b)	Subject to Clause 29.3 (Transfers by Lenders), an Existing Lender may effect an assignment or transfer of an interest in any Facility by (A) executing and delivering to the Facility Agent a Transfer
Agreement via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Facility Agent or (B) if previously agreed with the Facility Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Facility Agent a Transfer Agreement, and the New Lender shall provide to the
Facility Agent such information as may be required by the Facility Agent for the purposes of this Agreement (including any applicable tax forms) in which the New Lender shall designate one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level
information (which may contact material non-public information about the Obligors and their Affiliates or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance
with the New Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including U.S. federal and state securities laws. 

  

	 	(c)	By executing and delivering the Transfer Agreement, the Existing Lender and the New Lender thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto the representations set out in
paragraph 1 of Annex 1 of the Transfer Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	Upon its receipt of a duly completed Transfer Agreement executed by an Existing Lender and a New Lender, the transfer fee referred to in Clause 29.3(e) (Transfers by Lenders) and, if required, the written consent
of UPC Broadband to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Facility Agent shall (i) accept such Transfer Agreement and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment intended to be effected pursuant
to a Transfer Agreement shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in Clause 29.10 (Register). 


  
 229 









	29.6	Designated Entities 

  

	 	(a)	A Lender (the “Related Lender”) may designate an affiliate or substitute Facility Office (a “Designated Entity”) as its Facility Office for the purpose of participating in Utilisations
to a Borrower in a particular jurisdiction. 

  

	 	(b)	An affiliate or Facility Office of a Lender may be designated for the purposes of paragraph (a) by acceding as a Designated Entity by signing an accession agreement substantially in the form of Schedule 9 (Form
of Designated Entity Accession Agreement). 

  

	 	(c)	A Designated Entity does not have any Commitment and does not have any obligations under this Agreement prior to such Designated Entity participating in a Utilisation. 


 

	 	(d)	When a Designated Entity participates in a Utilisation: 

  

	 	(i)	subject to paragraph (e) below, it shall be entitled to all the rights of a Lender and have the corresponding obligations of a Lender, in each case under the Finance Documents relating to its participation in any
such Utilisations; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the other parties to the Finance Documents shall treat the Designated Entity as a Lender for these purposes. 


The Designated Entity is a party to this Agreement for these purposes. 

 

	 	(e)	For the purposes only of voting in connection with any Finance Document, the participation of a Designated Entity in any outstanding Utilisations shall be deemed to be a participation of the Related Lender.


  

	 	(f)	Any notice or communication to be made to a Designated Entity shall be served directly on the Designated Entity at the address supplied to the Facility Agent by the Related Lender where the Related Lender or Designated
Entity reasonably requests or, if no such request has been made, shall be delivered to the Related Lender in accordance with this Agreement. 

  

	 	(g)	A Designated Entity may assign or transfer any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its participation in any Utilisation (and the Related Lender may assign or transfer any corresponding
Commitment) in accordance with this Clause 29 (Changes to the Parties). 

  

	29.7	Permitted Affiliate Group Designation 

  

	 	(a)	UPC Broadband may provide the Facility Agent with notice that it wishes to include any Affiliate (the “Permitted Affiliate Parent”) of UPC Broadband and the Subsidiaries of any such Permitted Affiliate
Parent as members of the Borrower Group for the purposes of this Agreement. Such Affiliate shall become a Permitted Affiliate Parent for the purposes of this Agreement upon confirmation from the Facility Agent to UPC Broadband that:


  

	 	(i)	such Affiliate and UPC Broadband have complied with the requirements of Clause 29.8 (Additional Obligors) and such Affiliate has acceded to this Agreement as a Borrower or as a Guarantor; 


  
 230 









	 	(ii)	Security has been granted (in form and substance satisfactory, to the Facility Agent (acting reasonably)) in favour of the Security Agent over all of such Affiliate’s shares and all of the rights in relation to
loans from any member of the Wider Group (other than such Affiliate and its Subsidiaries or any member of the Borrower Group) to such Affiliate and its Subsidiaries; 


 

	 	(iii)	UPC Broadband has delivered a certificate to the Facility Agent signed by an authorised signatory of UPC Broadband which certifies that: 


 

	 	(A)	the designation of such Affiliate as a Permitted Affiliate Parent under this Agreement will not: 

  

	 	(1)	materially and adversely affect the Security and guarantees provided in relation to the liabilities under this Agreement; or 

  

	 	(2)	result in the Lenders under this Agreement becoming structurally subordinated in right of payment to lenders to the Permitted Affiliate Parent and its Subsidiaries; and 


 

	 	(B)	if the ratio of Total Net Debt to Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group is calculated for the most recent Ratio Period ending prior to the Permitted Affiliate Parent becoming a Party for which financial statements
have been delivered pursuant to Clause 19.2 (Financial information) (the “Relevant Ratio Period”) but adding to the: 

  

	 	(1)	amount of Senior Net Debt and Total Net Debt used in such calculations any net increase in the Senior Net Debt or Total Net Debt of the Borrower Group (as applicable) since the end of the Relevant Ratio Period or
subtracting from the amount of Senior Net Debt or Total Net Debt (as applicable) used in such calculation any net deduction in the Senior Net Debt or Total Net Debt of the Borrower Group (as applicable) (in each case taking into account the amount
of Senior Net Debt or Total Net Debt (as applicable) attributable to the Permitted Affiliate Parent becoming a Party); and 

  

	 	(2)	Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group, the Annualised EBITDA of the Permitted Affiliate Parent and its Subsidiaries for the Relevant Ratio Period, 


the ratio of Senior Net Debt to Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group would be equal to or less than 4.50:1 and the ratio of Total Net Debt
to Annualised EBITDA of the Borrower Group would be equal to or less than 5.50:1; 

  
 231 









	 	(iv)	it has received, in form and substance satisfactory to it (acting reasonably): 

  

	 	(A)	a combined Borrower Group business plan pro forma for the designation of such Affiliate as a Permitted Affiliate Parent which sets out the management plan for the period from the date of the proposed designation up to
and including the earlier to occur of: 

  

	 	(1)	the then latest applicable Final Maturity Date; and 

  

	 	(2)	the date falling three years from the date of the relevant designation; 

  

	 	(B)	an updated group structure chart showing the Common Holding Company (as defined below) and all of its direct and indirect Subsidiaries pro forma for the designation of such Affiliate as a Permitted Affiliate Parent; and


  

	 	(C)	financial statements for the last financial year of the Permitted Affiliate Parent and its Subsidiaries or any Holding Company of the Permitted Affiliate Parent and its Subsidiaries including consolidated balance
sheets, consolidated income statements and statements of cash flow; and 

  

	 	(v)	UPC Broadband has given written notice to the Facility Agent identifying a person that is a Holding Company of UPC Broadband and each Permitted Affiliate Parent as the common Holding Company for the purposes of this
Agreement (“Common Holding Company”) provided that the Common Holding Company and any of its Holding Companies has not issued or incurred, and shall not issue or incur, Holdco Debt. 


 

	29.8	Additional Obligors 

  

	 	(a)

Holdco or any Subsidiary of UPC Broadband Holdco or any Permitted Affiliate Holdco which is permitted to issue and has issued Holdco Debt may become an Additional Guarantor and any member of the Borrower Group (including, without limitation, any
Permitted Affiliate Parent) may become an Additional Borrower by delivering to the Facility Agent an Obligor Accession Agreement, duly executed by that company as an Additional Guarantor or Additional Borrower (as applicable). 


  
 232 









	 	(ii)	A person which (A) becomes the immediate Holding Company of UPC Broadband or (B) becomes a Guarantor under the Existing Facility Agreement shall, prior to or contemporaneously with becoming such Holding
Company, become an Additional Guarantor by delivering to the Facility Agent an Obligor Accession Agreement, duly executed by that company as an Additional Guarantor. 


 

	 	(iii)	A member of the Borrower Group (including, without limitation, any Permitted Affiliate Parent) that becomes an Additional Borrower shall, prior to or contemporaneously with becoming an Additional Borrower, become an
Additional Guarantor by delivering to the Facility Agent an Obligor Accession Agreement (which may be the same Obligor Accession Agreement entered into by that Additional Borrower referred to in paragraph (i) above) duly executed by that
company as an Additional Guarantor. 

  

	 	(iv)	Upon execution and delivery of an Obligor Accession Agreement and delivery of the documents specified in paragraph (v) below, the relevant member of the Borrower Group (including, without limitation, any Permitted
Affiliate Parent) or other person referred to in paragraph (i), (ii) or (iii) above will become an Additional Guarantor or Additional Borrower and an Additional Guarantor (as applicable).

liabilities of the relevant Additional Guarantor under Clause 17 (Guarantee) where such limitation is required by any applicable law. 

  

	 	(b)	Subject to paragraph (d) below, UPC Broadband shall procure that the 80% Security Test is satisfied at the end of each Accounting Period for which financial statements are delivered under Clause 19.2(a)(i) or (ii)
(Financial information). 

  

	 	(c)	A member of the Borrower Group (including, without limitation, any Permitted Affiliate Parent) may only become an Additional Borrower under a Facility if such member of the Borrower Group executes an Obligor Accession
Agreement and (other than in the case of UPC Financing) such Obligor Accession Agreement specifies the relevant Facility under which that member of the Borrower Group is to be a Borrower; and 


 

	 	(i)	the prior consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained; 

  

	 	(ii)	it would not be materially adverse to the interests of any Lender under that Facility as determined by each such Lender (acting reasonably); 


  
 233 









	 	(iii)	such member of the Borrower Group is incorporated in the same jurisdiction as an existing Borrower under that Facility; or 

  

	 	(iv)	the prior consent of each Lender that enters into the Additional Facility Accession Agreement for that Facility is obtained. 

  

	 	(d)	After the Effective Date, UPC Broadband shall be in compliance with its obligations under paragraph (b) above if it procures that any of its Subsidiaries which are required to become Additional Guarantors do so
within 60 days after the delivery to the Facility Agent of any financial statements delivered under Clause 19.2(a)(i) or (ii) (Financial information) which demonstrate that additional Subsidiaries of UPC Broadband or any Permitted Affiliate
Parent are required to be become Additional Guarantors under paragraph (a). 

  

	 	(e)	The execution of an Obligor Accession Agreement constitutes confirmation by the relevant Additional Guarantor or Additional Borrower (if applicable) that the relevant representations and warranties set out in Clause 18
(Representations and Warranties) to be made by it on the date of the Obligor Accession Agreement are correct, as if made with reference to the facts and circumstances then existing.

	29.9	Reference Banks 

  

	 	(a)	If a Reference Bank ceases to be a Lender, the Facility Agent shall (after consulting with UPC Broadband) appoint another Lender which is not a Reference Bank to replace that Reference Bank.

	 	(c)	Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, Lender may disclose to any of its Affiliates and any other person:

	 	(d)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Party to this Agreement (and any of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, representatives, professional advisers, or other agents) may (and has since

 236 









	 	(b)	The Facility Agent may disclose: 

  

	 	(i)	any Funding Rate (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, any Reference Bank Quotation) to the relevant Borrower pursuant to Clause 11.6 (Notification); and 


 

	 	(ii)	any Funding Rate or any Reference Bank Quotation to any person appointed by it to provide administration services in respect of one or more of the Finance Documents to the extent necessary to enable such service

Administration/Settlement Service Providers or such other form of confidentiality undertaking agreed between the Facility Agent and the relevant Lender or Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank, as the case may be. 


 

	 	(c)	The Facility Agent may disclose any Funding Rate or any Reference Bank Quotation, each Borrower and each Obligor may disclose any Funding Rate, to: 


 

	 	(i)	any of its Affiliates and any of its or their officers, directors, employees, professional advisers, auditors, partners and Representatives if any person to whom that Funding Rate or Reference Bank Quotation is to be
given pursuant to this paragraph (c) is informed in writing of its confidential nature and that it may be price-sensitive information except that there shall be no such requirement to so inform if the recipient is subject to professional
obligations to maintain the confidentiality of that Funding Rate or Reference Bank Quotation or is otherwise bound by requirements of confidentiality in relation to it; 


 

	 	(ii)	any person to whom information is required to be disclosed in connection with, and for the purposes of, any litigation, arbitration, administrative or other investigations, proceedings or disputes if the person to whom
that Funding Rate or Reference Bank Quotation is to be given is informed in writing of its confidential nature and that it may be price-sensitive information except that there shall be no requirement to so inform if, in the opinion of the Facility
Agent or the relevant Borrower or Obligor, as the case may be, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances; and 

  

	 	(iii)	any person with the consent of the relevant Lender or Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank, as the case may be.

 237 









	31.2	Related obligations 

  

	 	(a)	The Facility Agent, each Borrower and each Obligor acknowledge that each Funding Rate (and, in the case of the Facility Agent, each Reference Bank Quotation) is or may be price-sensitive information and that its use may
be regulated or prohibited by applicable legislation including securities law relating to insider dealing and market abuse and the Facility Agent, each Borrower and each Obligor undertake not to use any Funding Rate or, in the case of the Facility
Agent, any Reference Bank Quotation for any unlawful purpose. 

  

	 	(b)	The Facility Agent, each Borrower and each Obligor agree (to the extent permitted by law and regulation) to inform the relevant Lender or Reference Bank or Alternative Reference Bank, as the case may be:


  

	 	(i)	of the circumstances of any disclosure made pursuant to Clause 31.1(c)(ii) (Confidentiality and disclosure) except where such disclosure is made to any of the persons referred to in that paragraph during the
ordinary course of its supervisory or regulatory function; and 

  

	 	(ii)	upon becoming aware that any information has been disclosed in breach of this Clause 31. 

  

	31.3	No Event of Default 

 No Event of Default will occur by reason only of a Borrower or an
Obligor’s failure to comply with this Clause 31. 
  

	32.	SET-OFF 

  

	32.1	Contractual set off 

  

	 	(a)	A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation owed by an Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to
that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of
business for the purpose of the set-off. 

  

	 	(b)	Any credit balances taken into account by an Ancillary Facility Lender when operating a net limit in respect of any overdraft under an Ancillary Facility shall on enforcement of the Finance Documents be applied first in
the reduction of the overdraft provided under that Ancillary Facility in accordance with its terms. 

  

	32.2	Set-off not mandatory 

 No Finance Party shall be
obliged to exercise any right given to it by Clause 32.1 (Contractual set off). 

  
 238 









	32.3	Notice of set-off 

 Any Finance Party exercising
its rights under Clause 32.1 (Contractual set off) shall notify the relevant Obligor promptly after set-off is applied. 
  

	33.	PRO RATA SHARING 

  

	33.1	Redistribution 

 If any amount owing by an Obligor under any Finance Document to a
Finance Party (the “recovering Finance Party”) is discharged by payment, set-off or any other manner other than through the Facility Agent in accordance with Clause 12 (Payments) (a
“recovery”), then: 
  

	 	(a)	the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the recovery to the Facility Agent; 

  

	 	(b)	the Facility Agent shall determine whether the recovery is in excess of the amount which the recovering Finance Party would have received had the recovery been received by the Facility Agent and distributed in
accordance with Clause 12 (Payments); 

  

	 	(c)	subject to Clause 33.3 (Exceptions), the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the redistribution) equal to the excess;


  

	 	(d)	the Facility Agent shall treat the redistribution as if it were a payment by the Obligor concerned under Clause 12 (Payments) and shall pay the redistribution to the Finance Parties (other than the recovering
Finance Party) in accordance with Clause 12.8 (Partial payments); and 

  

	 	(e)	after payment of the full redistribution, the recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the portion of the claims paid under paragraph (d) above, and that Obligor will owe the recovering Finance Party a debt
which is equal to the redistribution, immediately payable and of the type originally discharged. 

  

	33.2	Reversal of redistribution 

 If under Clause 33.1 (Redistribution): 

 

	 	(a)	a recovering Finance Party must subsequently return a recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a recovery, to an Obligor; and 


 

	 	(b)	the recovering Finance Party has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery, 

 each
Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the recovering Finance Party through the Facility Agent, reimburse the recovering Finance Party all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party. Thereupon
the subrogation in Clause 33.1(e) (Redistribution) will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement. 

  
 239 








 Each Finance Party agrees with the Facility Agent that it will comply with any notice given to it
by the Facility Agent under this Clause 33.2. 
  

	33.3	Exceptions 

  

	 	(a)	A recovering Finance Party need not pay a redistribution to the extent that it would not, after the payment, have a valid claim against the Obligor concerned in the amount of the redistribution pursuant to Clause
33.1(e) (Redistribution). 

  

	 	(b)	A recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal proceedings, if the other Finance Party
had an opportunity to participate in those legal proceedings but did not do so and did not take separate legal proceedings. 

  

	33.4	Ancillary Facility Lenders 

  

	 	(a)	This Clause 33 (Pro Rata Sharing) shall not apply to any receipt or recovery by a Lender in its capacity as an Ancillary Facility Lender at any time prior to service of notice under Clause 21.19
(Acceleration). 

  

	 	(b)	Following service of notice under Clause 21.19 (Acceleration), this Clause 33 (Pro Rata Sharing) shall apply to all receipts or recoveries by Ancillary Facility Lenders except to the extent that the
receipt or recovery represents a reduction from the Designated Gross Amount for an Ancillary Facility to its Designated Net Amount. 

  

	34.	SEVERABILITY 

 If a provision of any Finance Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that shall not affect: 
  

	 	(a)	the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of the Finance Documents; or 

  

	 	(b)	the legality, validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other provision of the Finance Documents.
